Cheers andy  :smiley:

holy crap i love those wheels  :drool: :drool:

Haha thanks, I'm getting a bit bored of them to be honest.. had them for 18 months.  :indifferent:

Very nice!

Thanks :)

It's quite reasonable, I have a specialist policy with a power limit that I pay to change, any other non-power enhancing mods are free.  :happy2:

I am not sure who the underwriters are but it's through the Admiral Group of insurers.  :party:
Although I think next renewal I will be looking to change, I don't like their call center and the waiting times when you do phone up.

Cheers  :laugh:
My mate is with Admiral now on his Corsa VXR - He had a Corsa 1.7 SRI before, and with Admiral it was half the price of the 1.7... sometimes I think it's completely pot luck.
I can't really complain aside from the half-witted call centre staff.. I remember when I went to add the exhaust system originally, when I first had the Piper Cat-back, I said "I have a cat-back exhaust" and the woman goes "sorry what is that? a cab back? do you have a truck".
