Cluster Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Anyone know which forester is the 252 bhp version on insurance data base. Looking at buying the Prodrive 2.5 but our insurance company don't recognise the name Prodrive ( which claim 256 bhp) so reluctant to buy something difficult to insure.

Cluster Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 Had quote from Adrian Flux, was almost double the price for a standard 2.5 however our own insurance company asked if it was the 227 bhp or the 252 bhp model, when we said it was the 227 bhp with PPP upgrade fitted they said they wouldn't insure it. As far as I know there wasn't a 252 bhp model....but there is one on their database hence the question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Have a word with you insurance company and just tell them it's the 252 bhp model as thats what the prodrive pack claims to bring it up to. If it does have the ppp you should have a cretificate confirming this as it was a dealer sanctioned upgrade, Personally I don't find flux to be great with their quotes, mine was silly from them last year and I had loads of problems, try mark richards, or keith Michaels &sky all are brokers but normally very competitive between themselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cluster Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Certificate is there however everything I've read about the PPP Forester claim 256 bhp. Worry of course is leaving any get out for the insurance company if anything 'bad' happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I suppose you could always ask your insurer about the 252 model see what specs they have and what matches with the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
