Hi,

I run an Estate Agency business and I've got a Vespa that 3 of our staff use to do viewings. Trying to get insurance is becoming a nightmare! Anyone else know of a decent insurer that will look at something out of the norm.

The scooter is in the companies name and kept at the company every night.

I can't see why this is so hard!

Thanks for all your help and thoughts in advance.

Isn't it run by Jonathan and Laura Newall?

Ask your local pizza place who insures their scooters.

It's only an Estate Agent, not a real person.
