Insurance nightmare!!!

Post by avanzato » Sun Jul 13, 2014 1:46 pm

I bought my Bongo 2 weeks ago and I have just had to cancel my insurance for it as the docs came back with 'Mazda E2000 double sliding doors' on it! Used Budget insurance so I rang them to see if they could sort it out - the lady on the phone basically did a new quote and came back with £1505! So now I have no insurance and my poor Bongo is parked up until I find new insurers!
Had a quote from 2gether - are they any good? I tried to ring them to set it up but they aren't open on Sundays.
Also are lifesure any good?
Tried Aviva but they were quite pricey!

Thanks!

If it's converted and on the V5 as a motor home .. then the Camping & Caravan Club are OK ..

If it's unconverted maybe try Adrian Flux .. or Chis Knott.. and mention that you have had a recomendation on the Bongo Fury Forum ..

Lifesure quoted me £250 ish for a converted 1996 diesel. This was just 2 weeks ago, and they have seemed efficient and pleasant.

Admiral, just get email confirmation that they are aware that it's a 'grey' import. Very Good deal as part of a multicar policy.
