What about insurance issues, we havent had a discussion on that for a while.
Mines up for renewal (14th Dec) and staring down the both barrels of Priviledge at £399 for the year (not classic insurance). Considering swapping to a classic insurance policy with Norton at £195 for the year. Only down side is that I wont be able to drive her to work.

I'm moving tonight so presumably Internet will be cocked up and will be offline for a while from midnight. That's my excuse anyway so if you need to get in touch over the next fee days please phone!

[quote="mellowyellowa610"]Working all the hours god sends. Sure that goes for many of us! :([/quote
leave for work at 7 and get home 8 15

Not going to complain too much tho i am happy just to still have a job 8)

Insurance on the van baring in mind it limited to 7500 miles to bring the cost down the cheapest i could find on a commercial policy was £725
quotes after that for the same thing without breakdown etc
Was between £999 and £1600 at 40 yrs of age plus¡¡¡¡
I must say though Adrian Flux got me that deal which includes legal protection plus the usualand most importantly £85 worth of recovery which includes vehicle trailer and car and i have that in writing.

Tha Alpines and other Renault all undera collectors policy for around

£600 not bad for 3 vehicles all.capable.of 140 mph plus. thats also full comp and unlimed mileage

The van insurance went up.£170 though....nothing you can do they have you over a barrel with ya pants down

Mine is more expensive than any of you so stop complaining!

I am looking forward to getting some snow, can't be far away now it's starting to get properly cold. There's no more fun to be had in a car on public roads than doing massive powerslides... at 15mph. The 610 is especially hilarious in the snow, unless you really need to arrive on time.

You'll all be glad to hear that I solved my immobiliser woes. Turns out hitting it cures the problem. Should have been the first thing I tried!
