So its that time of year again....

Sadly it seems the underwriter that Manning used for their road/track policy will no longer insure supercars, only 20+ year old classics.

Anyone who used to Manning switched and where to?

Bugger, is this true? I'm with Mannings and paid slightly over for their great service of which I experienced before. I'm not interested about track day stuff though.

Admiral dont offer track day insurance which was part of the appeal to using Manning.

Is £1463 ok for a Ferrari 488 via Admiral? Fully comp, social and commuting.

LV offer some very tasty deals and using them for my 18 reg 991.2 Targa 4 GTS I reduced my premium from over £1200 to £198.00

LV wont insure Mclarens, i have my daily with them and enquired about adding to my policy.

After an afternoon of the usual comparison sites and phoning around it seems as though i will end up with seperate road and track policies.

Reis was really good for a road and track policy but will only insure to the value of £50k on track.

Used to use Manning.

Now use ClassicLine, great price, great service and track days included. Loads of the McLaren Owners Club are now using them. They were £400 cheaper than Manning for me and the fact they still offer track cover meant it was a no brainer.

10% excess on track, 5 days included and additional ones are £56 per track day.

Classicline currently best insurer for high end supercars if you need track cover.

Great shout for Classicline, got a decent quote, but has to have the tracker, so seeing as mine is inactive, its going to bump the price up a fair bit.

May go with with two seperate policies, which are working out about the same and if the unfortunate does happen on track, it doesnt affect future road policies with regards to having to declare as an "accident".

If it’s the Vodafone tracker it’s only £215 for a year or £580 for 3 years and I’d always want a tracker regardless of insurance to be honest.

On another note, is that how it works? Do track incidents count as an accident on your policy?

It is the Vodafone but hasnt been active for 2 years so apparently it needs resetting which also costs circa £250 (so i am told) so really pushes the first year up.

If you claim on a combined road/track policy for a track accident you have to declare it as an accident in the future.

I have ended up going with Grove and Dean for both, seperate road policy and seperate track policy, both very competitive No tracker required, they apparently supply a nano tracker with the policy so will update once i receive it.

Very interesting.

Will give them a go next year. Didn't realise they included track accidents in the road policy.

I was with Classicline, good company but they don't give NCB. Also, The McLaren insurance was more xpensive hence me leaving and any cancellation return is pityful.

I'm with Zurich via A-Plan.

I heard about Classicline but when I looked at their website it all seemed like classic (ie old) cars. Guess not?

Thumbs up for Classicline. If it’s a limited mileage supercar - 2-3k pa and it’s always garaged with a tracker, their quotes are ridiculously cheap. Mainstream brokers can’t touch them.
