Border crossing - Kato Pyrgos

Has anyone entered the north at Kato Pyrgos recently?
I have always bought insurance at the border previously, but I'm told the insurance counter is not open there now and you have to buy it in the town. Was also told that you can pre-buy this by email.
Has anyone done this and got an email address to be able to do so?
Thanks
Ray

You can buy insurance from Andreas Karos in the town, just before Station Cafe. It only takes 10 minutes and you can wait in the cafe with a brew, if you want. If his office is closed just call him because he will probably be in the office upstairs.
Don't know about pre-buying but his email address is
karos.a@cytanet.com.cy. Tel 99444403, 77771064, 26522303

I have found that it can be pre-ordered online by using this email address:
tijen.imer@daglisigorta.com
http://daglisigorta.com/ is a website in Turkish but I can't find an English translation on it.
looks like an insurance company.
Emails replied to very quickly and in good English.

If you open that link in Chrome web browser, Google will offer to translate the whole site into English; I clicked yes and it did just that.
Thank you for that Happy in Cyprus.
I use Chrome on a laptop but couldn't see an option to translate. However right clicking on any page does offer to translate to English.
