Insurance and the Nordschleife

I’ve been let down by insurance company.

I had been insured with Liverpool and Victoria for a few years, they’ve covered me previously with a policy that give trackday and nordschleife cover.

I’ve just had my S1 converted to a Honda, and called before i got the work done to see the impact on my policy, and was told that there was no change in premium or cover. Great, so i was ok to get the work done and was issued a new cetificate.

Now, come renew time my paperwork has arrived, but the new schedule listed my car as a 1.8, so called to check and was told that the ammendment couldn’t be made as my current policy wouldn’t support the engine transplant. In effect my policy has been invalid since i notified them in feburary. They’ve looked at it an now can cover the car, with limited UK trackday cover and ring use, but for over �2200.

I’ve called round, and the best offer I’ve had is from Competition Car at under �700 with UK track cover, but they won’t cover ring use, and i’d like to get over there a few more time this year.

So, has anyone had any luck getting a policy that covers the ring (i only need thrid party there to be legal)? I’ve tried AON, Autotorque,A-Plan and HIC so far…
