Comparison site offers £775 with other provider.
Anybody know any other secret sources of insurance ?

12 years no claims
Clean license 25 years+
Live in a decent area
v6 2018

Re: Vehicle tax reduction
The V5 document gives you the date the higher tax is payable to and I was surprised it wasn’t an exact number of years. My car was first registered in October 2018 but V5 said higher tax payable to 31.12.23 - can anyone explain that? Given it seems to be an entitrely arbitrary tax I guess they are ...

Vehicle tax reduction
My vehicle tax has come in much lower than previous years. Having looked into it it seems that cars over 40k when when new attract a charge of £390 a year extra tax for the first 5 years and mine has just gone over that age. I didn't even know about that particular gouge. Nothing to do with CO2 or o...

Re: Squealing from startup
Mine has done this from about this time in the year till about March each of the three winters I've had it. I stressed about it the first winter but have since just considered it a 'feature'. Perhaps I'll live to regret it...but I'm ignoring it...it isn't getting worse and it has caused no other iss...

Re: Photo spots/locations?
Hey all, does anyone have recommendations for locations that make for great photoshoot spots for cars? Mainly thinking about SE England but further out is good too. Been searching on Google maps for a few hours but can't seem to find a good spot that is car-friendly. The only 2 places I personally ...

Re: Value dropped by 21% since June ?
The current purchase cost and subsequent depreciation of any similar convertible (such as a V8 Vantage with old Merc tech) would be a financial disaster. And you have to consider if you are buying an F as a nice means of transport or a wonderful life experience and therapy. In my case my 6.5 years ...
