    How do No Nonsense Insurance view LPG? FBD are the underwriters. Any LPG drivers insured with them?

    I got a silly quote when I told my insurer a car I wanted to buy is LPG plus they wanted me to pay to get it certified.
    I asked the seller who he was with and he said it's not on the books as being LPG. Since there's no tax reduction or grant he didn't register the change.

    My broker is now trying to rob me blind wanting to change me to a new policy with Aviva costing €650 per year, the car is worth less than that.
    .

    You did an LPG conversion on a car worth less than €650 ??

    Yes, the car is in great shape and with my mileage it will pay for itself.

    LPGAIN doesn't charge for certification for insurance company. PSV and Taxi drivers needs "Engineers Certificate". there is something about it here "There is additional cost of €100 for the Engineers Certificate / PSV and TAXI Drivers only /"

    Best way to find out : ask someone who converted car with them...

    Funny I got my modified car(suspension,audio,bodykit,brakes, interior +Hx of Cat D write off) insured through Axa one of the few companies that would take it on as new business. It seems Axa dont care about mods as long as you pay them for it.

    Hi.

    Did you get approval from 123.ie prior to getting it converted. Waiting to hear back from Bestquote.ie re approval for getting it converted in Tallaght, noticed both are underwritten by RSA.

    Update: Called today by Bestquote. LPG Conversion is covered with no additional premium.

    Thanks
    Peter

    If a petrol car had failed NCT on emissions, would it pass if converted to LPG ?

    For vehicles tested operating on L.P.G. the hydrocarbon reading must be divided by the propane/hexane
    equivalent factor (PEF) which is marked on the hydrocarbon test equipment.
