Just read your insurance guide and I disagree with the part in which you said that Norwich Union is an 'Insurance Friendly' insurer.
Reason being I used to drive a Saxo VTS, I bought it completely stock and insured it. After about 6 months I then put on an aftermarket stainless steel backbox (because my old one rusted through). I then gave Norwich Union a call and they told me that they will only cover a maximum of 2 modifications at an extra 10% of the premium per mod!

This meant I had to pay around an extra £100 just for sticking on a stainless steel backbox which made hardly any difference to performance.

Daylight robbery I tell you!

Anyway that's my 2 cents!
