Hello

Post by m3rrd » Wed Apr 07, 2010 2:24 pm

Hi, just introducing myself,

Been up at a couple of trackdays at knockhill with mcKeann as a pass a few years ago and been looking to get an elise since. Finally bit the bullet and got myself one, S1 111s in titanium. Its been sitting in the drive since the end of last year, but now that the weathers starting to warm up time to get the covers off and start enjoying it [got used to being pampered in the M3].

Looking to get a decent quote for insurance as my other insurers wont cover it with the filter and exhaust mods, any suggestions gratefully received.

Rab.

Cheapest I found around was CCI, give them a try


I spoke to John whose details below:

John Priestman
Accounts Executive
Competition Car Insurance
72 Maid Marian Way
Nottingham
NG1 6BJ

Tel:- 0115 941 5255

Direct no:- 0115 941 6145

Fax:- 0115 941 5215

e-mail:- john.priestman@towergate.co.uk

web:- http://www.competition-car-insurance.co.uk

Seem to offer the best price compared to everyone I tried and also include for 5/6 trackdays a year which is an added bonus. Mention you are a member of Scottishelises as this intitles you to a little discount! :thumbsup
