Well I've finally got the Fun ready to go on the road and thought I'd give these guys a ring... Their quote was over double the lowest quote that I'd gotten pushing it well over the £1,000 mark. I'm having real issues trying to find an insurance company to cover me in the fun and trying to explain I won't be using it for haulage is a major task. Any other fun owners out there got any success stories as far as insurance is concerned?

Hi ya mate, since 2008 I'd been with Autodirect but this year (Aug) I've chopped over to A Flux to save a few quid. Being a car derived van you'll find the classification is commercial and that will exclude a number of leading insurers. Tbh it's difficult to give specific pointers as insurance is so variable from person to person, depending on age, locality, NCB, who's covered etc! Ideally you should be able to get a quote somewhere between 300 - 500 quid, so hang in there and good luck

Thanks, I finally managed to get a company to cover me last night, still more than I wanted to pay, but It was that or not have the car on the road and well, frankly that wasn't an option :p

I agree, trying to explain its a 4 seater, but not a twin cab and it's kind of a car but more of a pick up, and no It's my prized possession I won't be using it to haul anything especially hazardous materials, there's only 614 ever made and probably only 300 on the road I'm going to look after this as if it's my child, NO I never said I want limited mileage, I never said it's a show car, stop putting words into my mouth. Are you sure it's not an import...? You modified it for the extra seats... that doesn't sound like standard to me....

I had a great day of phone calls yesterday :p
