Got my renewal quote from my current insurers need2insure, could'nt believe it, it has actually came down by an amazing £5.30, from £745 to £739.70 nearly fell off ma chair ;D ;D ;D. I have e-mailed them advising I have a lower quote at 570 from performan, lets see what they come back with, mind you without the MS60 ;D ;D

Blimey & I thought I was paying too much!

How Much!! Are you living in the car theft capital of the world?

Well low and behold, got a reply back from the insurers regarding the lower quote of £570, and they revised their quote to £602.25, includes £1,000 ice cover. and all the mods, Thinks I might just go for that, only problem not protected and have 10 yrs no claims. Might just go 3rd party ;D, but I am insuring the car for 10k

Yep, always pays to haggle, goes to show how much they are prepared to rip you off...presonally I think they should all go to jail...then again I might just have a career change and become an insurance broker ;D ;D

Could'nt think of a better car to learn to drive in :y
-
True but she hasn't quite got the hang of controlling a barge in a car park yet. Not doing the blood pressure any good.
Still roll on when she passes her test - I can give her my 2.5 manual and treat myself to a 3.2 MV6......

Thats the benefits you see, why have 1 when you can have two, drive that she'll be OK driving any large barge cars......do u think she'll pass, she has'nt prnaged it yet has she :-X
-
I see your point - two barges to spend vast amounts of money and time to keep on the road............
Not ready for the test yet but not got too far to go I think.
Having said that she did turn to me and say today that it wasn't as good as a Volvo. Sent me into a bit of a sulk and made we wonder whether I should change her for another model (present squeeze that is not the meega).
The other problem I have is that at 4ft 12 it is impossible for her to wash the car properly. I guess one of those car wash mops on a long handle will do for christmas.....

You could always lower the supension...still be cheaper than a volvo...is this the first test?
-
lower the suspension? I think I'd need to take the wheels off and then give her a set of steps.............
Yep first test and we have not found an instructor to knock the rough edges off yet. when we do I think it will be quite a difference pootling around in a 1litre corsa to the meega unless I can find and instrutor that has seen the light and doesn't mind the fuel bills.
