    Anyone know who is the best for insuring high powered cars? Looking into a 2.5turbo subaru imprezza. Can't find anyone online offering to quote, don't fancy spending half the day on the phone.
    Thanks Bob

    123 Insurance also do decent quotes on high performance cars. What I did when I bought my impreza was take out a traders policy. It works well as usually an impreza isnt used as an evryday car (some people including myself bought a run around car or van) Let me know if you want info on people that do the traders policys.

    Well im actually in the trade but when I got the traders policy first I was private. There are different types of traders policy , such part time policies for valeters etc. You can nomintae your own personally vehicle on the policy , the ops impreza in this case, which is then insured fully comp(again depends on the policy) and then carries on the same as a normal private policy.

    Ha We underwrite all the policies for 123, you would get better cover from a smaller broker though, 123 policies are pretty basic
