Insurance Rant!!!

[brotherhood]

I insured my car with "Classic Ford Insurance" as advertised in Classic Ford. The very first question i asked was "will you cover it with a roll cage harnesess and comp seats?" "No problem" was the reply. Then i enquired about agreed valuation to which i was told it was not a problem at the value i stated. However, this was over a month ago and after sending in all the required descriptions and photos etc, i still hadn't heard anything. I called to be told although the car was insured, it wasn't covered for the agreed value because "it looked a bit like a rally car!" So if it was nicked i would only get market value. TO$$&RS! Classic ford insurance are actually Performance direct and don't do what they say on the tin. Steer Clear!

lol , all insurance companys are sharks so be warned . They don't like anything with a full roll cage (perhaps they think your in the habbit of crashing at speed if you have one) . It's much easier to get good insurance with a half roll cage and full interior though cos they then think your sensible and don't crash . The mind boggles

I know, they asked for the normal 6 pics and i sent them 10, i said "does it look like it's taken into the woods??!! Sorted it now though with the insurance company i was orignally with. Sort of went back with my tail between me legs LOL!

Phoned 'em up today..... reply was ' SORRY, DON'T KNOW WHY IT WAS QUOTED THAT PRICE'

Back to normal now....

i had that from them once - almost as if they think we just sign the cheques without looking what we're paying for

With another company a few years back and i insured my car with everything declared and when it came to renew was cheaper so i thought bargain! Hmmm, little did i realise that they insured it as a completely standard 1100!
