Hi all as a new (virgin) scooby owner I need some help I'm picking my X plate Mk1 Scoob up at the end of the month and I still havent got a sensible insurance quote any idea's ?

Also which insurers are OK about simple mods such as exhaust / air filter changes ?

Im with tesco seem to be pretty reasonable. Didnt seem scared when i told them my age and how many points i had lol.

Oh and welcome m8.

Subaru's "approved Insurer" (Broker)is tom@schofieldinsurance.co.uk - the premium for my STi/PPP has just gone DOWN (No, that is not a misprint)so the least I can do is give him a plug........

Factor into the equation that some companies will ask for a tracker and they aint cheap either. I know tescos want a tracker and cat1. You would be okay with the later UK STIs as they have RAC trackstar and cat1 I think. The X plate UK turbo didnt have a tracker but did have a cat 1 IIRC.

You could try Liverpool Victoria as they seem to be very good at the moment on scoobs.

start

the cheapest I found was elephant but the costs go up quickly for mods. They don't require a tracker though.

Im a young scooby owner and tesco was my best quote by miles also try green lite, my mates with them on his scoob and they proved cheap for him

Tesco here too and i also required a Tracker.

RB5320

Greenlight (01277 263030) have just got my business. Very efficient, the bloke I spoke to knew all about Imprezas and mods and a very good quote. They also cover track days (at an increased premium)
I have heard good things about schofields but cant comment on their price as I am waiting for them to call me back. I think after 4 weeks they are unlikely to do so!

Liverpool Victoria were spot on with me. Not bothered about alarms or trackers. Excellent. Decent price too.

Mr Gee

Liverpool Victoria for me too - The best quote I had from a list of companies. No Tracker need either.

Bottomfeeder

Keith Michaels PLC.........great buch of guys
08451204643 ask for Christian Wheatley

I always use J W Webster in Blackburn. 01254 661511 ask for Phil Fogerty.
9 years of trying and every time I get a lower quote they manage to beat it.They may be able to help but depends on you age etc.

Blobster

Just a wild stab in the dark, but try Egg.com, I got a really good quote updating form a Mondeo 2.0 LX (I've got kids all right!) Maybe they'll be good for an entire year's quote.
Worth a try.

scooby29

priveledge were pretty good but do require tracker and cat 1

clewlis

Ive just bought my first Impreza Turbo (and its great!)..
best quote i got was through Green Light...as mentioned earlier by RB5320.

Need to meet the usual requirements like; Cat 1 Alarm/immobiliser and Tracker but found them to be Much cheaper than most of the big names! (Tesco and Direct Line)

Happy Hunting

cdco

Thanks all, it looks like Im going 4 the one Bottomfeeder sent me 4 now but ill keep tesco's in mind.
Ta 4 making me feel welcome.

PS the scooby looks like the best tonic 4 a divorce.

tesco came up with the best quote for me and I looked at quite a few - differences varied by over a grand so shop about.

Franx

Try Norwich Union. I had a goodun off them. Cheapest by about £150 in my case...
Get the impression they're not too keen on mods though.

Nikolaus

yeah, I went with Norwich Union too, was with CIS (£592), NUDirect quoted me £426 with allys declared, no tracker needed either!
