Sounds like more than just the engine swap. Im insured through Adrian Flux on a 325i and its costs me £415 fully comp with all mods declared, ie the suspension etc

BUT im 35, max no claims bonus, safeish area, car garaged, thatcham imobiliser, limited mileage.

Also remember that Adrian Flux are brokers which means they are only advising the quotes they receive from insurance companies

Same as above, but mine is £496
27, 3 years NCB

I'm with Flux, was about £740 I think with all mods declared.

[Ant]

Me too £306 with all mods declared, limited mileage and agreed value

but I'm getting old, 33 and full NCD, always helps.

im £900+ and im 36 i wouldnt tell them for that engine swap as theyre physically the same engine to look at anyway so it would be highly unlikely theyed find out. not that im encouraging illegal activity obviously

[e30bmlover]

one will never know. hey she will be a quick 320!

not really-manifolds are different, 2.5 block has 2.5 samped on it...

take out a spark plug, insert a straw in, and mark it at TDC and BDC, voila-got the stroke.

takes about 3 mins to tell one way or the other

Top marks to skyinsurance ! i rang them after beemerlads recommendation, they matched the ridiculously low quote i had form elephant (£205 FC - 318is), but before i realised it (long story!) my girlfriend renewed the insurance on the BM through elephant. Will definitely be giving skyinsurance a bell in the future, there customer handling was ace!
