    Re: My New car

    Those pics still make me cringe - The fact you are here to post them is still lucky.

    I know the guy I sold my A3(S) too and he still has it, wonder if he'd feel charitable and let me have it back?

    Re: My New car

    Always worth a shot.

    I gave my old metro away, still want that back at some point. I bet they make me pay for it though.

    Re: My New car

    Realistically, for that car to really put a smile on your face, it'd do about 28mpg, and I seriously cannot afford that!

    Re: My New car

    Too many units of speed round a corner I didn't know was wet (was only a few miles away all day and it had been glorious weather), back end went away.. fish tailed down the road a bit while fighting it but finally lost it and went backwards and diagonal into a hedge and flipped it about 4/5 times.

    Was.. interesting to say the least.

    2 weeks later I was back in a new one. Actually since I had gap insurance and the new car was so much less than my claim.. I actually got paid a fair wack of money to crash the car ..madness.

    You seem to be confusing driving with *no* insurance with driving with *invalidated* insurance. I'm not in the slightest suggesting the former. Also, I never mentioned driving without a license, that's just obfuscation by you.


    No, no proof required, only a little contemplation. As above, you only have FULLY COMP insurance if you haven't invalidated it.


    As I said earlier this is what you were angling at.. You utter pedant leave the bloke alone. You want to do something about not declaring all car mods then join the police.

    Do you even have the slightest clue about what an insurance company will and wont pay out for, I assume not. Concentrate on your own policy and stop trying to undermine everything he is saying and has done.

    And?

    I am aware how it all works, and that rules can be bent slightly.

    There are many people that dont think the way you do, about declaring a replacement door speaker for instance
