Askmid details for the Mk7

[p3asa]

I phoned DirectLine and the models she had on her system all had a T at the end of them for the 13on, as in Golf GTI 2.0T or Golf GTI 2.0T Performance.

Anyway she contacted another department and it looks like they had put me through as a Mk6 GTI which meant I also got some ££ back.

Shocking that a database, used for something as crucial as insurance, is such a shoddy piece of crap. Many people won't have the knowledge, or interest, to question what comes back when they key in their registration, yet the insurance companies, covering their own backsides by giving you the option to "correct" it, will, no doubt use it as a wriggle out. Run by the insurers for the insurers!

All sorted. Now showing

Vehicle:  VOLKSWAGEN GOLF 2.0T
Make/Model:  (13ON) GTI 5DR

I thought the askmid was just a generic database but it says
If the vehicle make and model details are not correct you must contact your insurance provider to resolve the issue.

Thanks for this. I just checked mine and it also showed an 09 on! Called to change it and got £30 back. Not bad, insurance for £220 a year.
