A quick poll. Who has actually driven a LADed Clio? [Edited by badgersport on 07 September 2004 at 10:51am]

If you have an accident and the insurance assesor discovers any un declared modifications - YOU ARE NOT INSURED. It is a simple as that. You will then be sued by any 3rd party involved in the accident and you will have to pay any claim made against you out of your own pocket. Whilst this is...

A friend of mine used to own a bodyshop before he retired and Ive known a car be written off by the insurance company for 2 broken headlights. It was on old Volvo, value about £1000 and the headlights were nearly £300 each plus the cost of fitting. Most insurance companies tend to write off if...
