Insurance for a Turbo mini
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi All,

I'm about to embark on turboing a 1275 to put in my Morris Minor. It's a few years off finishing and realistically won't be done until I'm 23. Does anyone have any recommendations on where is the best place to get insured with a Turbo'd car? and roughly how much it will cost? (obviously this depends on various factors)

Thanks,

Will

insurance is a lottery and only time will tell. personally I use Flux. plenty use Herts which are a sister company. there are a few others out there too

I use HIC. Very helpful on the phone and I've even got track day cover! Agreed Valuation is a must if you ask me as well.

Not a turbo, but mostly everything else with it all declared.

I was with Carole Nash last year but after recommendations of Brentacre on turbominis I got a quote of them.

They were both really professional, didn't treat it like "it's just a mini", agreed valuation with both.

Best thing to do is get a quote off them as mentioned above it's a lottery - a quote for one person could be completely different for someone else in a different postcode.

Thanks all for the quick replies.

I'll investigate the above companies and see what the situation is.

Cheers,

Will

Also try RH insurance.

They have my 1959 turbo A35 and my 2005 Honda S2000 on the same classic policy !!

I've been with footman the last two years, I was with Flux before that but when I declaired the engine change they wanted an extra £700 (bringing my insurance up to £1200) up front for the change so I ditched them and went to Footman which was £450ish with all of my mods declaired which was cheaper than my standard 998. But yeah, depending on your postcode, points blablabla your prices will be different from everyone else anyway.

They don't die, they just get faster!

I'm with Classicline, all mods declared, including NOS (!) about £150 BUT this is an age thing I'm afraid, they just don't think ancient people go fast

'Where does the engine go?'
