Dan - could I ask you a 'quote' question in relation to the Abarth 500 and the impact that it would have on any modifications / versions ?

Which would be cheaper to insure for say a 30 year old with a full no claims bonus living in crime free part of England :

1. A stanard A500 with no modifications.
2. A 'standard' A500 with a TMC upgrade chip that produces around 160-165bhp or
3. A esseesse version A500 (often referred to as a A500 SS) that has an offical upgrade with brakes, suspension and ECU re-map giving typically 160bhp and lastly
4. A A500SS with a TMC chip upgrade giving 165-170bhp.

Any input would be greatly appreciated. I read elsewhere that option 2 was double the price of option 3 but I found it hard to believe it.

Dan - many thanks for getting back to me. I am based in Dublin in Ireland - hence the reason from not 'calling' you directly. My particulars are below (I've nothing to 'hide' :))

It was more pointers re buying a standard Abarth verus a TMC'd one verus a 'proper' SS model. I was looking to import one and from an insurance perspective would it be a 'better bet' with the SS model than one has been TMC'd.

I would be 'happy' for you to use me an an example.

Hi

Can i please have your number as i will need to get someone from quotes to call you as i do not deal with the underwriting side of things so will need to arrange a call back .

Cheers

Dan - I wouldn't be calling you back because I'm based in Ireland. Hopefully some other forum member will contact you and relay the experiences in relation to 'loading' on the standard Abarth if they were considering a more performance orientated model like a TMC upgrade or SS model.
Cheers

I can confirm that AF were very competitive when I asked them to quote on my A500. My previous insurer who I had been with for many years told me that they didn't insure Abarths :confused: so I was forced to look for a new insurer.

After the usual "gocomparethemeerkatmarket" searches I then rang AF and found them extremly helpful and best of all, they are UK based. I got a good price and the 7000 mile pa limit wasn't a problem plus they give discount to FF members. (y)
