Insurance, not sure where to post this

Hi Guys,
First of all, this site great, I have learned more about my recent Terrano II since coming on here than I could have hoped for from a book.

I love my motor, but there is a fly in the ointment. I have always managed to get a good deal through Tesco (don't shoot me) and again, they gave me a good price fully comp etc for the Terrano. Then the bombshell, do it have a cat 1 or 2 alarm immobiliser fitted? No idea I said, its the one fitted at the factory, do i have a certificate? Nope says me.....to cut a long story short, the jobs worth script reader on the other end of the phone tells me I am covered, but not for theft until I produce and engineers certificate to say if its cat 1 or 2. What a pain....

HELP !!!

Pete

it should'nt matter, just tell them it's a factory alarm/ immobiliser, you definately got a jobs worth, you could try "saga" we pay £165 protected for 2 off us. or try tesco again you mat get someone who knows what there doing.

just for the record, if your T2 is anything like mine, it has NATS fitted, then it's catagory 2 Thatcham...................

Damned insurance companies.....
