Insurance for UK visit

[CFritz7001@aol.com]

    I am planning to take my MG TC to England for a 4-month stay during the 
Summer of 2000.  My current insurance is not valid outside the USA.  Seeking 
any info. regarding sources of coverage with UK-based insuror.  (One such 
company turned me down on the basis that they "do not insure visitors, or 
short-term residents".  Seems like a rather silly attitude to me, but maybe 
they have good reason.  Who knows?)
Regards to all,
