I was having a mooch around the net for some odds and sods and came across this.

I might give them a try when my insurance comes up for renewal in a couple of months.

You'll do well to beat Keith Michaels i reckon!

I'll be trying Keith Michaels too as he is top of my list after my current insurers A-Plan. :thumb:

I'll get A-Plan to quote first then match everyone else up against that. However, companies that do trackday insurance too will more than likely get my business this year!! The link i posted looked interesting because they offer permanent trackday insurance as part of the deal

Keith Micheals could not compare with insurance compared to A-plan on the skyline - I'm in the process of renewing at the moment. Kieth Micheals wanted

That's quite a difference. It makes you wonder how some companies can offer exactly the same insurance for a car yet be that far apart in price.

I went to A-Plan on reccomendation from someone on PistonHeads, and i have to say they came through with cheaper insurance than i could get from DirectLine, my own insurers at the time.

This year i want to do some trackdays and i can't afford to pay for full damages out of my own pocket if i smack my pride and joy, and any other damage i may have caused to armco or someone elses car, so trackday insurance is important to me this year although i'd rather not have to envoke it.

A-plan are a broker - my insurance is with Ensign - however I know no-one who has made a claim to know if they actually pay out !! ..

Just looked to HIC for a quote.

TBH the trackday insurance offered by normal companies usually have massive excesses, where as when I Sprint I have used a Competition based insurer which in my case had a decent excess,

Ben, let us know what quote HIC come back to you with. You car isn't the cheapest around to insure so if they give you a really good quote with all your mods and free trackday insurance chucked in they may be worth a punt.

It will be worth asking them if they insure for the Nurburgring and how much.

They said it wasn't worth them quoting as they aren't very competative on GTR's - they said had a called Adrian Flux - I said no thanks.
