I'm sticking with VET, ROS then RIC.

God these cars sound bloody awful

Then either he needs to complain to the ombudsman (who will 100% uphold his claim), or he was telling porkies and left his car outside for longer than the odd day. Or he's telling you lies. Is it reasonable for an insurer to refuse a claim like that? No, of course not, and he'd have an easy case there. If he's telling you the truth, of course.

He may not want to drop the rate, but between no-one paying £20M a year and £10M a year in the bank, I know which I'd go for.

Basically, McLaren don't have a sponsor yet then. If they did, they'd be putting them on. Good job they've got a bit more spare cash than Lotus.

That's not a question?

*facepalm*

That's a whole different ball game though. I'd much rather give my keys up than try and fight someone.

Agreed. But you've already told them about the decats, so it would not invalidate insurance.

Totally wrong mate. MOT has no relation to insurance whatsoever. Car at home. MOT run out. Car gets stolen. Do you think insurer won't pay out?

Thick skin

Just fit the O2 spacers, they're like £30 for the pair. Having your CEL light on is daft, as if you have a real issue you'll never know about it.

Like an elephant, me.

Is that like having your cream cake and not eating it?

Blimey, fair play to Paul. It is Paul, isn't it? I think that's right.

They do not invalidate insurance. If they did, then the insurer would cancel your policy when you told them you fitted them. Which of course, you would do because you're not silly. Would you expect your insurance to be void if you had a crash with a knowingly blown head light bulb? Or a broken wing mirror? Or any number of different things which is an MOT fail but not declarable?

Christ, are Whifbitz still going?!

I made the post in jest, but there's a very real logic to it. It's only a car, not something to risk life over.

Looks great, what products did you use?

A packet of prawn cocktail Quavers. Man, I love those crisps!

Or leave them where they are visible after they've broken in, so they just take them and don't come upstairs and rape your bunghole with an umbrella whilst you're in bed to get you to tell them where the keys are.

I wubs my GoProHD3 very much The + looks even better, but I'm not tempted to swap. Not yet, anyway.

I have a tracker fitted because no insurer will touch the 911 without one Well, not until it drops below £25K in value anyway. I just see it as a £200pa tax.

The question is, would anyone actually park their car on the road instead of in the garage to save a few quid on the insurance?
