Just called Churchill about swapping my insurance over to the car I am looking to buy...
Its Nissan Almera Sri 1.6 group 7 insurance..
I was told that i needed to be 19 yrs old at the start of you insurance policy otherwise they can't insure me...
the thing is i am 19 now..
I wonder if anyone had same situation and if you tried to talk your way round?
Canceling insurance and starting a new policy is not an option.

right,
I am insured on my 1.0 shitbox with churchill..
when i started my insurance policy i was 18, now i am 19...
churchill wont insure me on Almera mentioned above because i was 18 at the start of the policy, and they require drivers to be 19 or over at the start of the policy to be insured on this almera..
pronto?

If they won't insure you and you can't change insurance you won't be getting the car.

right I get ya, seems pretty stupid what they are saying, usually you just pay the extra for what left if the car is an upgrade.
Unless you could cancel it get what you are owed and start a new policy.
