Hi all,
My renewals due on 15th June.
Direct line will not renew because of my remap, also been to LV with a refusal there as well.
Which companies are you guys using for mapper car cover?

Strange on LV..I've had both the 20i and 35is with them, both heavily modded no issues..we'll see at my renewal time in August..

I'd suggest that you go onto gocompare and key in all the details. There's a drop down box in there where you can note the remap and it will take it into account when it crunches the numbers. That's all I did and it wasn't a big deal.

For the last 3 years I’ve been with LV (2020), Chris Knott as Broker with actual insurance policy with LV (2021) and this year (2022) again with LV but via Confused.com website. All mods declared.

Odd? I'm with Direct Line.
Had the remap a couple of years now and no issues at all.
Tbf, when I rang them I got through to a young lady who was a bit of a petrol head herself. Five minutes sorting the policy and 20 more discussing her cars. :roll:

Try A-Plan: https://www.aplan.co.uk/ I recently had my MX-5 extensively modified and tried Greenlight Insurance first but A-Plan was much cheaper. One disadvantage with A-Plan is that, being a broker, you can't just make FOC changes to your policy online at any time, you have to speak to them in business hours and there's normally admin fees.

I always use the compare tool at Quidco.
The cashback offsets any small bumps for the remap

All three have covered my Z4MC over the last few years with a long list of mods for a very reasonable annual premium. Worth calling them all and using one quote to get the others to 'sharpen their pencils' :lol:

I’ve been with LV for 3 years and no problem with the re map , always baffles me as to how someone gets a yes and others a no 🤷‍♂️ Crazy insurance companies with no rhyme or reason. It cost me more to declare the painted calipers than it did to declare the remap. 😵‍💫

Out of interest how long does the cashback take on that.. I'm assuming its quite some time
