insurance

Anyone done this? I've been given my dads Passat for nothing and want to use it as a daily beater, but also insure my T until i sell it. Any recommendations. My T is currently with Sainsbury's at £219 fully comp for the year. But their multi seems expensive as I don't think they mirror. They...

Its that time of year again, the T needs insuring.. Im wanting to get an agreed valuation on it this year after the stories of low payouts. Which companies would you recomend to get in touch with. Im currently with Aviva , but it hasnt got an agreed value on it... Thanks...

The other thread currently running about the stolen car has got me thinking. How easy is it to get your insurance co to put an agreed value on the car.? I had one on Porsche 968 I owned, but that was on "classic" limited mileage policy..

Hello Trophy owners My Clio Trophy, which I’ve had from new, was stolen this week. It was parked on the road just outside the house. During the night thieves broke into house front door and stole the keys. In the morning the car was gone. Stolen from Nimrod Road, London SW16. Reg is LV55...

Hi there My trophy is up for sale - it is advertised on PH and Ebay (you can see pictures there). Located in West Yorkshire - for sale for £5500. Thanks! Any questions please message me (There is a chip in the windscreen which happened 3 days ago on the motorway (? stone) - it is around 1-2cm...

if anyone comes across this one, the original owner said he did 9k+ of damage to it when it was only 3 months old, taking it around a track, and the insurance paid for the repairs, so wont be registered as a write off

Have a look at #10 folks.... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/picturegalleries/10323499/Top-10-affordable-future-classic-cars.html

So my Trophy has only done 1200 miles last year and the insurance renewal has just come through. Im currently insured with Admiral and they want £330 to renew (insured in my wifes name with 4 years NCB). Which companies are other people using for cars that spend most of their time in the...

Can you gentleman tell me when I can get myself a nice tax disc holder. I have been told you can get really nice ones with your number on?

I've had #455 for nearly two and a half years now. It was my first hot hatch and I fell instantly & deeply in love with the well-matched performance & handling. I always said it's a car I'll have forever, but more recently I've started thinking maybe it's time to move on and try something...

I have recently crashed my Trophy and she is in a bad way :( The offside sill is now a new 'feature' inside the car just ahead of the drivers seat and behind the pedals. The damper on this side is now also inside the car.. lying down on the back seat still attached to the front wheel in fact...

I am 100% NOT selling this car. Instead I'm arranging an agreed value with my insurance provider, but I'm after some guidance on what value to go for. Assume the car is standard, bar wiper mod & stainless steel ProSpeed custom exhaust. (It actually has a fair number of mods but they're all...

Well... My Insurance has come down a lot this year, anything to do with this whole equality thing? If so, cheers. That was until my Mrs's 'driver awareness course' 2years ago was now counted and put it up by £30 again. But then without her on the policy the whole thing went up by £80! Lesser...

So came back form work only to find someone has hit the 'T' no note left or anything. To say I was upset was an understatement. Looks like it was side swiped probably who someone who couldnt drive. Damage caused was rear quarter panel rear bumper, front headlight wing and bumper.

Ford focus forsale 1.6 edge HPI clear with proof full VOSA service history long MOT and just taxed. Only 82k miles just had cambelt wheel bearings done with receipts. One of last mark 2 so high spec including aircon. Good on fuel company car forces reluctant sale. Located south Birmingham...

Can you fit 195 tyres to the trophy turini's? I've heard you can but never seen anyone with them fitted.

Has a similar problem as someone else did on here, going down a hill, nothing i could do :(

2005, 55-Reg Clio182 in Black Gold fitted with both Cup Packs & the desirable Recaro Trendline Seats option. First registered September 2005 so one of the last 182’s and covered only 61k miles. One Previous owner from new (also middle-aged) Taxed & MOT until September 2013. The Car is...

Absolutely gutted! After 7.5 years and 80k miles, I've had a coming together with a very solid old stone wall, and come off second best. Stuffed the NSF into the wall, no metal panel damage, airbags didn't go off, but the assessor stopped counting the damage at £3.5k without getting stuck into...

Is there still a map showing the location of different registered Trophy's ?

Guy, Most T's have aftermarket filters, exhaust systems, braided lines & a few other bits as we all know. Now as standard im getting quotes of £600 which is fine, but declaring an air filter mod alone comes out at £900!!! Wtf!? I cannot find a standard T. What to do?

Couple of weeks ago someone decided that using the rear end of my trophy would be a better way to stop than using their brakes :mad: I am in the process of paying the salvage costs and will have a CAT C write-off trophy for either sale as a whole or to be broken up. The only damage is to the...

I'll soon be renewing the insurance on the the T and made some initital enquiries about agreeing a value for it should the worst happen. They've requested pictures (front, rear, left, right, interior, engine bay) and I guess they'll come up with a low figure and we'll start the negotiations...

I really like the 182s because they are so cheap for the performance.  However my car is cheap to insure slightly cheaper to run and gets me from a to b if it breaks it is cheap to fix like the 182s so why would I upgrade what would be the point why doesn't everyone drive the same cheap eco...

There is a renault clio 182 cup which is in perfect condition near me in rb which I really want to buy. These cars are very rare where I am. I was going to use my student grant and loan but the trouble is I don't get it all at once. I also have the issue of my own 206 ideally trading it in at...

Had an accident the other week in the Clio, everyone ok, car was driveable, not my fault, but going through as a 50-50 AFAIK. Body blow today when got a message saying it was a write-off! Damage to passenger side between the axles but am shocked as the coachworks thought it wouldn't be. The...

I've been hunting around for a t for a while now, extensive research on here has really helped with any questions I've wanted to know or find put more on, so thank you. I am just wondering what people's views are on higher milage specimens, are they a pretty solid car if all he's been well...

I am reluctantly selling my beloved trophy as my financial position has changed and next years insurance is going to be a stretch too far. it has just passed 79000 miles, MOT feb 13 and tax march 13. Full service history. It has recently been fitted with a brand new 197 steering wheel. Any...

Sadly I present Trophy 219 for sale. The car has been faultless in the almost 5 years I've had it, never tracked or abused, always run on Optimax and has wanted for nothing during my ownership, the mileage reflects mainly motorway miles and my daily commute. Bodywork and interior are in...
