Thinking of going with quinn direct for my next car insurance! ive heard that you can modify the car as much as you want as long as you dont do anything to enhance the perfomance and the premium will not rise! is this true and what are they like, im asking people who have modified cars and are currently with them!
cheers, Jay!

If you like trying to talk to Irish, then yes, you shouldn't have any problems.
I know someone who was insured with them, he phoned them quite late and said they sounded drunk.

There was a similiar post a couple of days ago, dig it up.
They didnt have any problem with my perfomance exhaust system, nothing changed. Ive heard they are shit when it comes to claims though.

The point I was making is that their service isn't up to much, which, would indicate a poor company

i wouldn't claim for a widscreen lol, not worth it, might as well just buy a new one and protect your no claims!

How about doing it and telling them it's done when you already have a policy, they're not going to say no then.
