Insurance cancelled.

Hi All,
Bit miffed as insurance wanted pics of car then said its lowered but I've replaced the H&R coilovers with original springs so in my opinion it should be closer to OEM. They've cancelled my insurance with 7 days effect as their underwriters won't do modified cars. Cover only started on the 13th. Does it really look lower?

😬 There’s a good chance they might have known it was modified when a previous owner listed the mods.

With any luck you might get a full refund as it could fall within a 30 day cooling off period?

I use Adrian Flux. Fully comp, all mods listed, guaranteed value and all for £700 which I thought was fair.

Adrian Flux were always great on mine. All mods fully declared, whether visible or not.

Good info Chris/matt.
I will give them a ring when my insurance is due.

That’s not good. What a pain in the ass.

For the record, it looks like OE height to me.

I agree with Ben, looks standard to me.
But remember there were effectively 2 different ride heights depending on standard suspension or super sport suspension options ;-)
