Was that a subtle hint to make sure you get a Happy Birthday thread? Your Birthday is exactly 20 days before mine

So i rang Footman James back today and told them about my cheaper quote from Bridle Insurance at 198. They put me through to the underwriters middle man and he said "How Dose 185 sound? So i get 185, 50 excess, legal Cover, UK and EU Breakdown, 35day trip cover within the EU Limited 4500miles 375miles a month, Agreed Valuation have to send pics ect keep my NCB Funny how they chopped 115 pounds off just like that good thing i shopped around.

I am with Heritage my MK1 agreed value 6K, limited mileage 1500, European and UK breakdown cover all declared mods 89.75 and yes I am even older than Gaz37
sorry to hijack slightly, but i have recently gone with footman james and discussed clubgti as a regular forum i post on, they mentioned joining and getting the discount, so i have become a member, but have not heard anything from clubgti regarding the membership, do i receive an email or something through the post? i spoke to footman james and for a dual car policy - mk2 16v with coilovers and alloy wheels and project car 2.0 16v, 280 brakes, eibach front and rear anti roll bars, coilovers, 500 pounds worth of alloy wheels, both cars on limited 5k miles 460 of the queens finest! i was so chuffed, my renewal for the 1.8 16v was 600 pounds from another reputable insurance company!
all depends how modded it is mate give them a ring mention CGTI after they give you a quote price not before as they could say the quote includes the discount, all company's are cheeky like that
Hi Fella you should get a letter and a club membership card in the post give it about 3weeks to get sorted and to you.
Guys, I'm a bit confused with the "keeping NCB" thing. I have 9 years NCB from a policy that expired a year ago. I understand that most insurers won't accept a NCB after it has expired over two years ago. I am therefore looking for a policy (Fully Comp, 1989 MK2 GL only lowered and alloys) to use my NCD so I don't "loose" it (thorough expiry). My understanding is that you don't gain any yearly NCD on classic car policies. BUT can you use existing NCD so it will "stay renewed", if that makes sense? Thanks in advance, D
I have a Zimmer frame with wheels and a little bench seat in case I get tired walking from the sofa to the toilet!!
I've forwarded this thread to FT James to see their response to my quote, as yours takes the **** outta mine!!!
Thanks you SMP i am also interested in this as i do not want to lose my 8 years NCD! worked hard to earn that, like my 25 metre swimming badge i still have sewn on my trunks!
