The 78BGT is up for renewal and we were with NIG Skandia. We had our Feista
insured with them as they are cheap for 'normal' cars and we changed cars 6
months into the policy year. They wanted another 300 quid to change from a
1.0 Fiesta to the MG and said full renewal would be ~900 quid. I was quite
suprised when they are now asking for 325 for another year, but I thought
I'd phone around just to see. I rang Graham Sykes Insurance who insure my
modified mini at a very attractive price, but they wanted 671 quid (!!) and
they are a specialist for classics/modifieds. I then rang the MGOC club
insurance and they wanted 245, so I went with them. Anyone got experience
with these guys? Are they ok? Seemed nice and cheap. Lots of extras too like
full RAC cover (which I already have!) and European cover and a 60%
introductory discount.

I have also ordered two brackets and two rubber mounts from MGB-Hive. Should
arrive tommorow. Reading about mount renewal in Haynes, I have a feeling I
will need to borrow my friend's hoist to lift the engine rather than jack
from below.

Any comments?
