Default I might be back in a RA!!
Looking at a Zen'd WRX RA on Tuesday,
Sounds very promising!
Lets hope it turns out to be as good as it looks and sounds after talking to the owner!!.
Miss my STI RA so much that ive secretly been craving another ever since.
Obviously I'll let you all know the outcome!

Cheers Pete.

Well i might NOT be back in an RA.
Insurance on a 320bhp WRX RA is proving difficult, 740 quid best price so far, even Barry Grainger wont touch it due to the modifications

Remap
Full system & Sport cat
FMIC
Induction kit
4 pot front and 2 pot rear brakes.
Not exactly earth shattering is it!

My old STI RA was 600 quid, does 40bhp really cost 140 quid a year more!

I phoned Gary's direct line today and he is not back until Wednesday so i just called and got a quote, girl spoke to their underwriters and phoned me back and said they wouldnt quote me because of the modifications.
To be fair she didnt sound like she really knew what she was talking about but i would expect a company that advertises on Scoobynet to give all customers similar service no matter which member of staff they speak to?

As said, don't give in on this one. Speak to Gary when he's back.

If anyone can, Moley can!

Speak to Gary if you can.
My cover is £495 with all mods declared and has been that for the last 3 years.
I tried Greenlight this year for a quote to check the competivness of Gary as Greenlight used to be quite good.
They wanted £587, so I stuck with Gary.

Or send him a PM 'Moley WRX'

I understand Gary is not back at work until tomorrow but today was the day i was going to view the RA, effectively it is today or nothing as its my Sons birthday tomorrow.
Ive had quotes from Flux at 740 quid, A Plan are 665 with legal cover (30 quid) but comes in at 735 over 9 payments as i cant afford to lay down the money for the car and the insurance all in one hit!.
Does Gary know anyone i can speak to at Keith Michaels that will get me a decent quote as i need to sort this in the next couple of hours if its going to be a go'er...
