I would phone them up if at all possible.

Sounds like if you dont have the correct air in the tyres you'll have to pay for that as well.

I phoned up about my air filter cos my policy had just been activated and I couldnt alter it online at the time ... and the people I spoke to were Indian and I didnt have a clue what they were saying and it took AGES to get the mod added to the policy lol

Last car i had, had a K&N Filter and a cat back ss exhaust.

I insured it with elephant, declared the mods later and they charged me and extra ?11.  ?6 of that was admin for doing it on the phone!  I also removed my imobiliser after it went wrong, i told them it now didn't have one and they charged me just the ?6 admin fee for changing the policy details.

So in my experience elephant are good for mods.  


A VR6 isn't a way of life, it's just a car.

Yeah... Admiral ( which is the same as Elephant ) are ok for mods.  Got mine insured for about ?640 fully comp for 12 months - including lowering and new alloys.  :)

Phone up during the day in the week if poss, 'coz in my experience they use an Indian call centre at weekends / evenings.
