177BHP on a classic policy? I assume they don't know about the additional ponies then? I always thought classic policies meant the car must be in factory spec (give or take minor bits, e.g. parts that aren't available anymore/ fabricated)
Not at all. My mk1 Golfs on a classic policy with flux. Was 240 last year. They're quoting me 300 for next year fully comp with cover to drive other cars.
Mods include everything iv done:
1.3L engine swap
Coilies
Uprated brakes
Wheels
Cant think of the full spec off hand, but even fitting a roll cage was not an issue.
I suppose their has to be a bright side to the G40 becoming rapidly "obsolete" down at the stealers!
