Calling UK owners - Questions
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com New to the fold so go easy. I pick up a VO 1M next week and wondered whether the UK owners could recommend any insurance companies? Are there any local UK forums that I've missed? |

Welcome aboard Mark.
UK forums are a bit thin on the ground for the 1M and I've found the best information tends to be on here. As for insurance, I used to use Need to Insure for my modified RS to make sure it was properly covered. For the 1M though they were too expensive and as I don't intend to tune it I've kept with one of the mainstream insurance companies. As the 1M is holding its price very well I was a bit worried about the max payout of 40k but that's increased to 75k now so all bases seem to be covered. I guess I'm old though and have loads of no claims with a good history of high performance cars. FYI I've made sure the latest security software has been installed and also use a disklok for added security. If you're standard and intend to stay that way, look at the mainstream companies using a typical price comparison site. If you're modde or intend to in the future, I'd exxplore one of the specialists such as Adrian Flux, Sky or Need to Insure to name a few. Good luck with the imminent arrival. |

I had a quote through the go compare website just the other day.
Cheapest quote that came back was £351. That was with Hastings direct. I'm 36 with 10 years NCD. Standard 1M (for the time being). |

I got some low insurance quotes at the time of my 1M purchase, quite surprising TBH.
I guess a UK specific 1M forum wouldn't be exactly busy, with only 380-odd UK cars registered it wouldn't be a very active place. Must start posting and stop lurking! |
