The insurance on the 911 is due around about this time of year - it's a specialist policy issued by Locktons and arranged by the Porsche Club GB, and saved me a decent amount of money when I first took it out. It includes full European breakdown cover - which is around £300 on it's own if you purchase it from the AA, and also features track day cover and an agreed value, which is handy for people like myself who have modified the car.
Sounds good? Well, due to an IT issue they sent me an email at renewal saying "your renewal is going through", and I took them at their word. But it wasn't. Their IT system had stalled, and I was un-insured for around a month due to said IT problem.
I thought to check the askMID service last week as I hadn't seen my renewal documents and it showed in the Locktons portal as "pending", which told me that I had no cover.
It's now been resolved, but I'm interested to see if I get any ANPR generated tickets from the period when things were stuck at "pending".
