Insurance…
TB: “Hello, I’d like a quotation please, but before I go any further, it’s for a Black Cab.”
Insurance Conmpany: “Sorry, we don’t do taxi insurance.”
TB: “It’s for Social Domestic & Pleasure use only.”
Insurance Company: “Oh…no sorry, still can’t help/What car? It’s not on our system/Yes, that’ll be £800 third party only limited to 3000 miles.”
[Repeat ad nauseum for approximately 3 hours]
BUT THEN…
It was suggested by a colleague at work that I try Footman James. What can I say, apart from singing their praises to the sky! After warning me that they probably wouldn’t be competitive, they proceeded to offer me a Fully Comprehensive policy, including European breakdown (very imporatant), with unlimited mileage for less than half of the price of anyone else. I’d recommend them if you have something classic/slightly unusual to insure.
