Bloody rip-off......here's a few quotes I got from them for my first year's insurance:
Smoked side repeaters: £60
Lowered up to 29mm: £100
Lowered >29mm: £150
Aftermarker airfilter: £90
Alloy wheels: £125
Tinted windows: not covered

lol they must have changed cos when i had my corsa i only paid
200 odd quid extra for the year for having:
bodykit,
tints,
exhaust,
lowered upto 50mm,
alloys,
and having the stereo covered aswell.

elephant are identical company to Admiral, however i found admiral slightly cheaper.... i got the quote by doing it online..
why the hell do they charge different amounts on the premium if the cars lowered <50mm and more if its lowered more than >50 ?? its a bitch coz i wanna lower mine 55mm and dont wanna pay another 100quid or wotever just for that extra few mm!
same with window tints >30% <30%

as if an insurance company would know the difference between 50 and 55mm springs.

They go by their statistics and a bit of guessing. Put yourself in their position. What would you do?
