I`ve just recently insured my kit-car (first time for 4 years) , did it over the phone as I couldnt get their website to work , and a couple of weeks later I got a phone message telling me the policy would be cancelled if I didnt return the forms they sent within 7 days.......form which I had to explain to them I hadnt received !
The missing forms turned up the next day , and I just cant believe how much information they have demanded
As well as the usual copy of my licence , they want full details of my tin-top and its insurance , and a copy of the `purchase receipts for the vehicle as self built` ?
Who keeps receipts for nine years FFS
And how relevant is what I drive when my Fury is in the garage ?

my insurance asked me if the car (indy) had been modified lol

Can understand them asking about your tintop and insurance as they can then confirm this on the motor insurance database as i presume you have insured the kit as a 2nd car?? I think too many people were doing this with their daily driver (elises and so on) to get the cost down.

As for the receipts - well that seems plain stupid. I'd definately call them and query that - tell them straight its 9 years old and you dont have any. Check your policy about your cancellation rights just in case - how many days you get for full refund if the policy isnt right for you etc and if its 28 days maybe use this as a lever to get a more sensible request from them

Would it not be easier to just go to Adrian Flux or someone who knows what you're on about? I tend to pick insurers on price AND ones who actually know what I'm on about. I hate having to ring up to explain what the car is, yes, it's an 1100, yes it's a bike engine, yes I'm only 24. Just give me some damn insurance already!
I am also a little bit impatient.
