DAN@ADRIAN FLUX

Hi guys and girls, Hope you don’t mind a new thread. Adrian Flux Insurance now offer a new extra benefit which is available to add to a policy called FlexDrive. In short, if you have the ‘Driving other cars’ extension on your policy, which will only give you cover against third party risks, this ‘top-up’ policy will increase the cover to a comprehensive level giving up to £20,000 worth of cover for the car you are driving. I'm not trying to give it the hard sell here - I just thought with it being unique as far as I know in the market, it was worth talking about. It does have some restrictions; you must already have the driving other cars third party only benefit on your policy (this doesn't buy you the extension), the car must be insured, not belong to you, or be registered at your address. It can only be added to an Adrian Flux insurance policy. The policy is perfect for someone who has friends or relatives who are ‘in to’ their cars like you and I. Using someone else’s car with just third party cover is always a bit awkward, especially if something happens! It won’t suit everyone I know, but for people like you and I who love their cars, it could be very handy. At £24.99 a year it’s very reasonably priced. Cheers, Dan.

So guys and girls, the start of the show season is here, the weather is improving by the day (touch wood!) and it’s time to get the car out and make it sparkle ready for the summer. Here at Flux towers, we thought what better way to prepare you other than to give away a fantastic prize?!

Just jump straight to Step 2. Step 2: Once you have received your quotation or if you are already a policy holder with us, you need to post on this thread and give us the most imaginative, funny, clever reason as to why you need this prize in your life.

Big discounts with new Audi TT insurance scheme Audi TT owners can save up to 15 per cent on their insurance premium after owning their vehicle for a year thanks to a new policy from specialist broker Adrian Flux. The new scheme covers everything from the early turbo-charged 1.8 litre cars right up to the latest R5 TFSI and V6 quattros. The UK’s leading specialist car insurance broker has more than 35 years experience of dealing with performance cars and is committed to helping drivers find the very best deals. “The Audi TT is a special car and we share the love that owners have for them,” said Gerry Bucke, general manager at Flux and a former TT owner. “We know that drivers of performance cars take special care of them, which is why we can offer such great insurance deals. “We share drivers’ passion and enthusiasm for motoring and don’t want them to pay ridiculous amounts to insure their vehicles.” Extra discounts are also available to members of owners’ clubs and those who agree a fixed mileage limit. For further details about Adrian Flux’s Audi TT insurance schemes, visit www.adrianflux.co.uk/audi-tt/ or call Flux free on 0800 5876331. Audi TT facts: The TT was first shown as a concept car at the 1995 Frankfurt Motor Show The car takes its name from the successful motor racing tradition of NSU in the British Isle of Man TT (Tourist Trophy) motorcycle race The TT name has also been attributed to the phrase "Technology & Tradition"

Agreed value in a rising market While the stock and housing markets have undergone a turbulent time in the past couple of years, classic car prices have continued their inexorable rise. This trend’s most obvious manifestation was in the £20.2million paid for a 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO in early February, a British record. But more generally, the Historic Automobile Group International (HAGI) has released figures showing that, in some sectors, prices in the classic car market rose by 20 per cent in 2011. As a comparison, gold prices rose by 10 per cent over the same period. HAGI says that its index of key collectable classic cars has increased by a compound average of 12 per cent a year for the past 30 years - a tidy investment for those with plenty of patience. All of which has implications for those with agreed value insurance who may be inclined to just let their policy renew each year. Do that for a few years and you could be risking a hefty shortfall in the car’s true value should the worst happen, especially if you’re one of the lucky few with a classic Mercedes at the top end of the market. To give it its technical definition, agreed value is an insurance contract under which the insurer agrees to pay the insured a stated amount in the event of the total loss of the property insured without any adjustment for depreciation or appreciation. Generally speaking, motorists will have to produce good quality photographs (inside and out) of their car, together with their value estimate and an independent valuation from an automotive engineer - usually not by an owners club or a garage who has either sold or carried out work on the car. It’s also useful to include details of any restoration or modifications carried out to ensure they are covered, though it’s worth remembering that the “cost” of your own time in restoring your vehicle can’t be included in its ultimate value - sounds obvious, but you’d be surprised... It’s also important to be realistic - although the value is “agreed”, an inspection is still likely to be carried out if you submit a claim, and if the vehicle is clearly in an inferior condition to that described, then insurers are likely to offer the true market value in settlement. Agreed value insurance isn’t a way of getting more than your vehicle is actually worth, but in an appreciating market it would be folly not to keep tabs on your classic’s true value.
