A further update on insurance quote, firstly, Hagerty would not quote me because my Volvo is my only car, and suggested I phone Adrian Flux, then Lancaster who very kindly gave me a quote of £1100.26, again, then I tried Towergate, turns out they are a subsidiary of FJ who I'm already with so no point in pursuing that, so I decided to phone my insurer FJ, after a brief chat about the £132 increase since last year, they agreed it was excessive and looked into it whilst I was on the phone, they have revised my renewal quote from £456.68 to £360.12 roughly a £35 increase from last year, so I decided to accept that. my policy remains the same, shows & events, European motoring, non standard audio, spare parts, salvage retention, agreed valuation of £3500, legal protection, Rac breakdown cover-roadside recovery,onward travel, homestart etc. so the hassle is done for another year.
