Insurance
Admiral won't insure with the Snorkel fitted!

Renewal due in a matter of days.

Does anyone recommend anybody who will insure while off road? You only have one life, live it....forget the cost.

That said I have always been with Adrian Flux and they have been good with any changes I have done.

Rolling with laughter I wasn't trying to insinuate that but at 22 you'd think you wouldn't be treated like a 17 year old but obviously so.

I compared A-Open, Lancaster and Adrian Flux when my issurance came up for renewal.

Adrian Flux turned out to be 100 cheaper than anyone else... but I have no brand loyalty so will shop around again at the end of the year.... 2013 Aintree Green 110 Station Wagon SX

ADrian Flux got the deal in the end, no quibbles over the snorkel and at a reasonable price too.

Thank your lucky stars that you don't live in the People's Democratic Republic of Scotland post 2014. The Government have proposed draconian restrictions on young drivers - apparently drivers under 25 want to kill themselves and other road users.
