What if they then turn around and refuse you the insurance?

I certainly would NOT recommend trying this. Mods are not registered against the car and it is naive to assume they are.

If you have a modified car then speak to a mofifed car insurance specialist.

They haven't refused it, you've missed the point, they charged her an extra £60, whereas it would have cost her an extra £270 to declare them first. Whats the differnce, she's all legal, insurers now know about the mods, and she's saved £200. Whys that happened?
This is just another example of how crazy the insurance system can be!

definately best to declare ALL mods upfront. If your girlfriend had picked up the car with insurance stating it was unmodified and then been involved in an accident it is likely the insurance company would have invalidated her insurance. They clearly ask 99% of the time either is the car standard or has the car been modified. She obviously stated yes its standard or no it hasn't been modified when first asked (when you thought they would have known about the mods anyway).

They could easily have refused insurance as you/she has blatently lied to them.

I have just pulled off a coup with my insurance renewal. What did I do you may ask.

well

I told the truth, I declared all my mods (and some I have planned) and I have just renewed for well under £300.
