Rang Miniworld this morning to get a quote on the Clubby:

1972 Clubman
1293 stage three engine
s/c gearbox/drops
Roll Cage
S discs
Uprated suspension
Re-spray
10" Alloys
Cat 1 Toad Alarm
Agreed valuation of £4000

for me, Fully Comp, age 20, new policy so zero no claims, 90 day european cover, courtesy car, windscreen cover - on a 5000 mile limited milage classic policy.

I was expecting about £750, i'd budgeted for that much, bearing in mind the engine mods etc...

£403!!!!!!!!!!!!

How good is that?! That is the cheapest insurance quote I have ever had, I'm definitely going to go with Miniworld for my insurance, they really have quoted me happy!

A very happy tom :grin: (and even happier because I got my tenner back from Asda too!)

i'm gonna try to get it insured for the week for any driver during the BH2N run, as my mate is co-driving with me. So CB, you may well get a drive yet! ;)

There's not many things good about getting old, except for being able to legally drink alcohol, and insurance getting cheaper!! woohoo! ;)

Can you really get discounts for all that?

What just reading mini mags? or do you need a subscription? How amny mini shows do you need to attend?

What do reckon a miniworld quote would be for a 19 year old with a 998 stage 1 with buckets and loads of chrome and stickers? I paid 984 TPO with Tesco for this years and that was before the stage 1! :nugget:

Cant argue with that at all! :grin:

My best quote (From a mini insurer) :

Mini Sprite 1.3i Automatic
Group 4
All standard
1995 N reg...

Im 17, No convictions. Ive done my pass plus...

They wanted £1750 TPFT...

I eventually got insured as a named driver on my dads insurance for £650. Which was better...

That was Fully comp too. :grin:
