Folks
I have been with Adrian Flux for many happy years on all of my cars. This includes a C55 Estate, 3.5 V6 Pajero and Uber Rare Agreed Valuation W124 4-Matic Estate.
Up until now I also had BMW 528i Estate insured with them. Now I have asked them to insure a BMW X5. This is 2005 car and does NOT have Keyless Go, but does have a factory alarm/immobiliser.
They have refused to insure, unless I have a tracker fitted? They will not budge on this.
If they move insurers then they say my premium 'without a tracker' would rocket, by over two thirds, making the car not financially viable to me.
What to do? I have paid a deposit on the car and want to have it. How expensive is a tracker to install?
