Some companies want trackers fitted some don't, yes its a real mine field, glad youre sorted ,anyway if someone did steal it they would soon abandon it once they see how fast the fuel gauge goes down

Spoke too soon, they are still bugging me about letters confirming this that and the other even though i've already given them exactly what they asked for and assured me would satisfy them. I'm having one last stab at keeping them happy and then giving up and moving insuance company.
I will have to hope Geoff11 is right about tight pocketed theives for now lol.
My best quote by far was with LV Insurance, BUT... they wanted a tracked fitted. So the £150 I'd save on the premium, I'd be spending on a tracker subscription instead
It got me thinking though - do many 260s get stolen? I haven't seen any talk of it on the forum and I can't imagine it's that high up the wanted list of the local chavs. So I can't see that a tracker would be that useful...

Im insured with privilege and was simply asked does it have an alarm? Quoted MG/Rover fitted. When my ZTT190 was stolen off the drive (never recovered) they paid up like a goodun.
Horray! Got a letter today confirming i've given sufficiant evidence that the alarm is thatcham cat 1. They wanted make, model, reg, alarm make, alarm model, thatcham approval number, dealership confirmation of alarm fitting (factory fit!) all comfirmed on headed paper from the original dealer.... sorted :P
thats good news then

Least it's all sorted - sometimes I despair of insurance companies
Colin Ellis #456 It'll be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end
I have just received my renewal from privilege and they are now stating car is not insured for theft or attempted theft unless i can prove That a thatcham 1 alarm is fitted. The fact the has a paid up tracker fitted does not count? They want proof from my gargage that a thatcham 1 alarm has been fitted. What a bunch of tossers take your money then tell you. I have a month to resolve reinsure with someone else. I think it may well be with someone else
acording to th e lisrt provided by VMAX and Ajay the car comes with a standard fit thacham approved alarm I will try them with that.
