UK insurance - please help!
Hi guys - for once - I'm actually posting a car-related thread! 
It's the same old issue again....
My 997 annual car insurance is coming up for renewal towards the end of February. I have tended to alternate between Admiral, Bell Direct and elephant.co.uk depending upon which one will give me the cheapest renewal quotation - since these three companies (which are all in the Admiral Group) have always been the cheapest for me, my car and my postal code area in London.
The problem is that all the mainstream insurers in the UK explicitly exclude track days and the Nurburgring Nordschleife from the insurance coverage they provide.
Naturally, I want some Nordschleife coverage built into my annual car insurance - if this is possible. I don't want to buy separate insurance just for a weekend etc since this works out to be prohibitively costly.
Just to give you some numbers, I typically pay about GBP750 for my annual insurance.
I have looked into alternatives. A Manning Ltd provides cover for certain track days organised by the ATDO (Association or Track Day Organisers) but this means booking track days with the ATDO only. That doesn't include the Nordschleife which is the main thing I want.
Also, I need European coverage as well for when I drive elsewhere in the EU.
Has anybody (in the UK) got any good ideas, suggestions etc for what to do?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers
Easy

A real frustration - I'd love to have a few laps, got bitten by the 'Ring-bug having done some fast pax-laps with porsche-jeck. I may go out to see him this spring now he's got his new baby and that will make the frustration worse
