I've told them as much of the story as I know but like someone else said, I'm not stripping the thing apart to find everything.

HI5 yes you mite be right ,i suppose the piont i was trying to make was that last year there was,nt such a problem to insure R34GTR,S but this year for some reason the rates have gone through the roof if you can find someone who will insure one,i no off one or to people on here who have come up against the same problem there must be some reason behind this but i dont suppose we will ever get to find out why.cheers NISMOMAN

When people say they have listed "all" modifications, what sort of detail does that entail?

it entails telling them every thing that is not standard factory fitted,i was told nismo parts are standard because nissan make them,but to me there not standard parts because thay did,nt come out the factory with them,so just tell them about everthing that you think will affect a claim .NISMOMAN

I ask because there seems to be no concensus amongst brokers and insurers as to the level of detail required.

I always advise the Insurers of all mods I have put on the car.

Not worth taking the risk IMO

Having a traders policy does NOT give you free range to drive ,own anything on the roads ,I have a traders policy due to having a few cars ,vans ,camper ,etc .I had to still send pics of my GTR of to them to show the mods .ok normally if you have a car you 14 days to register it with your insurance company so yeah you could buy sell cars and not worry,but when it comes to pay out after theft or accident its still the same .

i know someone who had a traders policy,banged his car made a claim on his traders policy,his insurance then asked for proof that he was a legit trader ie proof of car perchases/proof of car sales/copy of his trading acconts,copy of his company public liability????? etc etc.so what do you think came next SORRY SIR YOUR NOT A PROPER TRADER,SO THEREFOR YOU HAVE OBTAINED INSURANCE BY MAKING FALSE STATMENTS SO YOUR THERE FOR NOT COVERED beware insurance companys are getting wise to missuse of traders policys ,i own 6 vehicles and own my own company but cannot get a traders policy because i,m not a TRADER (in cars) in the eyes of insurance companys NISMOMAN
