looking good mate how much more do you need to do now?

raunchz · 9th May 2010, 09:58

what's the insurance like on this? Surely insuring a full rollcage is hard as a L driver?

Brentacre and Adrian Flux are the only mainstream insurers/agents that will happily insure a cage.

I presume he's got insurance quotes before doing all of this?

Fair play for doing this without even being able to drive, beats a 100" sub in the boot and 'slammed' to the ground with wings on it.

Thanks, need to do it the proper way.
and insurance. Well i had a dable before hand. Insuring with flux with just a cage is about £2700 fully comp. But i'm sure i can grind them down a bit.

Ashleyp · 9th May 2010, 18:31

so about £3k then?!?!

insurance rates are always on the up. theyve shot up a lot, especially recently

samueljonburgess · 9th May 2010, 18:32

furio sticker. forte would be more depressing. I'm not gonna becasue if i pass a vtr they will assume i'm in a vtr so won't care. Whereas when i pass them and they see furio they will be pissed

Got the first coat of paint on the brakes.

Hate hammerite first coats they look aweful

Tufty · 9th May 2010, 19:06

Gawd, the first coat of paint on brakes always looks nasty! Second really does make them look nicer though! Keep up the good work!

adamskiTNR · 10th May 2010, 19:03

Go the second coat on. Much better

Suprised you can even get insured with a cage. If they insure you with a cage then they should be fine with all other non-power increasing mods, that was how it was with me anyway and i'm only 20.

Jarhead · 11th May 2010, 00:01

Seats look amazing mate.

adamskiTNR · 11th May 2010, 17:06

Just sent for an email quote from flux. It was a quote as if i had just got my license at 17 with no other drivers. Thought i'd start with the worst lol. Then with my dad on as a named. And before anybody says no i can't put him as a main driver because i am not over 25.

frankie · 11th May 2010, 19:02

I hope you can find a decent quote mate, prices have shot up recently...

my mate whos turned 17, got quote 3500 for a 1.1

adamskiTNR · 11th May 2010, 19:10

Cheers.
Just got an online quote from flux for £2650

frankie · 11th May 2010, 19:13

Tbf, that is a very good price, when you take into account all the mods

samueljonburgess · 11th May 2010, 19:16

is the car just stripped and caged? engine mods are just breathing arnt they??

adamskiTNR · 11th May 2010, 19:22

Yeah, the lack of engine mods helps me thinks. Still, for a caged car not too shabby. Considering they will be insuring products worth nearly as much on top of the car
