kevmcc90 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 Need some advice guys, car isn't currently insured and I know it's registered as a non turbo. But want to insure it properly as glanza v. Is it ok go just insure as a glanza v even though it's registered as an s? Or does this need to be altered?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eynonz Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Mine has Starlet Sportiff on it's log book I think, and I made sure that my insurance knew that it was an Imported Glanza V. Some people just go on what the log book states, but if they were to be in an accident, I'm fairly certain that the insurance companies won't pay out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kevmcc90 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 See if you insure it as a glanza v would you then not be meant to change log book? As they might argue it's not insured correctly that way? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eynonz Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 The reason the log book says that is because the dvla dont have the glanza in their system as it was jdm so most imports go down as the closest thing they can get. This was what I was told anyways. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kevmcc90 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 Cool mate cheers for the info. So you don't think there would be any issue with log book being diff from insurance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan-11 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 As long as its insured as a Glanza V I wouldn't worry about the logbook tbh! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Hi mate, you should inform the DVLA its a Glanza V and have the logbook changed, then insure it as that. Thats what your ment to do anyway but nobody does haha. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kevmcc90 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 How do you go about changing the logbook and is it a long process? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet-Joshy Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Welcome mate, and check on the dvla Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baz-GlanzaV Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Both my glanza where down as starlet 1.3 (due too dvla not knowing what the car is) don't really have to change it on logbook just tell them it's a glanza v turbo japanese import and declare mods if any and you'll be on your way buddy. Better safe than sorry and it also voids insurance if it's incorrect. Also welcome along!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
