Insurance

That's to say, do not insure CSL through these guys if it's your main insured car.

Now I'm gonna have to buy an M2 to transfer my main insurance NCB to

(what I told the missus)...

And run CSL through classic without NCB.

They told me they would hold it until I moved on:smt108

Don't you just love man maths. Brilliant never heard this one before.

Stuck with cci as no time to faff flipping stuff around.

Raised insured value from £35k to £50k (although not guaranteed value)
Added 3 points speeding pinch from last month
Reduced annual mileage from 6K to 4K (still more than I did last year)
Premium compared to last year is down ~30%

Ok I think ?

There are no universal 'rules' as such for NCD, it's really vague.
I agree with the post above that if it's your main insured car, I wouldn't insure through Classicline as their risk models/policies don't really work in a world of 'building up' NCD. They don't risk model it, or track it.

They have said they will keep proof on file to be passed on to a future insurer, but you are relying on the future insurer to accept it.

(and underneath all this it's just a tick in an electronic box to feed into a machine....)

Mine's with cci. They wanted a tracker for anything valued over £40K:-( my car has one but when I tried to reactivate I was told by Tracker that the battery was probably flat and their trackers only lasted for 10 years.

Mine came with a Tracker and one call they came out changed it to my name serviced it at my house, and offered a lifetime of the car cover so happy days :thumbs:

Yeah missed that on original post, needs tracker

Ha ha the Classic Cars tracker fiasco. I had to get one for my Porsche as it was over £40,000. I paid for the lifetime cover after the first year. Whilst it was fitted to the car it kept on sending false alarms ie they would ring me every time I went out to ask if I had moved it. In the end fed up of getting the calls I asked them to fix it.

They then charged +£100 to come over and look at it. The bloke suspected the unit's battery was kaput but was too fat to reach it with the cage and bucket seats :hahaha:. I had to therefore squeeze in myself and dismantle the covers for him to be able to reach the unit with numerous socket extensions. Still got charged though.

I have never had any other calls since even though it has been into the garage for work in Germany and Blighty so not sure they will find it if it gets stolen. :whistle:

Is the requirement for a tracker in the small print? They never asked for one when I took out the policy with them. Best I go and read the small print. :banghead:

I'm not sure, but I know it's a stipulation. They only told me about it when I had my Spyder last year. Which means; A. All my previous cars ensured through them were uninsured. Or B. It's a recent thing.
I've booked in for a cobra tracker for £230 fitted and £130 subscription PA.

It feels like another tax.

Cheers.

Had a quick look at the paper work and the only stipulation I can find is regarding the immobiliser. Will have to give them a ring.

Please let me know what they say. I'd rather not get one if I don't have to.

They just confirmed it depends on where you live.

Crazy! I live in one of the lowest risk postcodes and they demand I have a tracker:banghead:

Will have to give them a call.

Cheers.
