Patrol off the road

[spinna]

Well ive had to sorn the Patrol due to lack of funds and insurance is due to. I think the price of living constantly going up has finally caught up with us.
I don't know whether to try and keep the insurance going so that i can hopefully tax it for the summer, if only to use for tintent.

youve ot to be having a laugh, , so if you use a 4x4 for towing you will get penalized, well that's it

im going to run for local mp, then i can run an old xj4.2 jag for towing on the taxpayer:naughty, and the wife can follow in the weekend jag:naughty

what an absolutly farcical f****n country this:doh

Sorry to here that I couldn't be apart from my trol now, even think the black pearl will go first . Luckily though I run the old girl on bio , and that's the excuse I'm sticking to 90p a litre now though, even that's gone up. I'm sure the govt is trying to keep old veggy oil off the streets to stop cheap alternative fuels :doh
Don't sell it, stay positive , work harder, and vote hard :sly
Good luck

bad new mate, but you are right, times are not good right now, financially. Im having to give up my Mazda MX3 now, this i after having to give up my Mazda MX6. Ijust cant afford the tax, fuel and insurance any more. There is no friggin way im giving up my Maverick though, they can shove their budget up their arse.

Sorry to hear about your problems, I think it will only get worse I mean, "we can't have peasants driving around in motor vehicles now can we"

We are about to be dicked for a very very large sum of money...my son is about to take his driving test and if he passes, well, I have looked at selling a kidney but I don't think that will cover what these F:!"Ks want.
They don't want people on the roads, I'm bloody sure of that

[spinna]

I know what u mean about young drivers insurance we got some qoutes for our lad. Hes not 17 till next year but we were getting figures of £6500for a 1.1 saxo:lol:lol:lol.
Dont worry i have NO intention of sellin the old girl, even if it means keeping her of the road for several months. Im not letting these daylight robbers get the better of me

Boys insurance is findable if you look hard. I got my sons first year as a learner with Collingwood for £860 fiesta 1.1 in his own name.
This year 1 years ncb new license £1200 :clap

 

[firebobby]

Cheers Makeitfit, I will give them a call:thumb2

 

[Fez_uk]

thing I found learner insurance is less, when I was on with my parents insurance.

As soon as I passed it was more.

 

[firebobby]

Well, I tried Collinwood, they only insure learners. so tried quite a few other places, most won't touch under 20's in an older car, until I came across Adrian Flux, they quoted £2700.
Still a piss take but better than £4950:nenau

Like I said collingwood when he was a learner, did a year there now passed test and has The Policy Shop insurance for a tad under 1200 squid That's with his first years no claims bonus/discount :clap
He's been quoted 1800 for his modified fiesta too, that's with big wheels, body kit, custom exhaust , KnN air filter, coil over shocks lowered etc
