Admiral,elephant & bell are the same company - not many folk know that.
Imo they didn't just add the mod to your policy, they thought you still had it there, in their eyes it was so therefore you'd have to pay. I'd just take it on the chin tbh.
I remember a while ago, a dude had a modded...
Imo paying out well into four figures to insure a 172/182 isn't worth it at all. I waited till I was 21 to get a fast-ish car. Insurance was reasonable, if i'd have done it at 18/19 i'd have been skinted each month.
If it is five years why did renault tell my old man that his was due at three years ?? Like I said the car was nowhere near 36k.
I've always thought it to be three years anyway.
I said it was 3 years for it.
My old boy had his done at three years too (by renault) his mileage was no where near 36k back then (ages ago) so it wasn't the mileage factor.

It's three years. As I said last time they apparently messed up in one of their books. My old man had his done @ 3 years, plus Fred says it's three years.
^ you have a 172 cup, so unlikely to have climate control, so it's easier to do, therefore a fair bit cheaper.
Then they'll probably say £300 for the aux belt, so basically a lot more than a speacialist.
They never did one, there was talk about the makers possibly making some as the demand for one seemed good, I don't think it ever got off the ground though.
From what I understand, it doesn't affect the premium, it will affect the payout in the event of an accident though. It will also be written off if the damage doesn't cost that much to repair (it's beacuse it has been crashed before)
They are coated, if you wanted to refurb them you'd need to get the coating off. I've heard that getting the coating off is a complete ballsache.
Mine could do with doing tbh.
^ how on earth being in college can you afford it ?? (i'll butt out if i'm being too nosey)
Don't worry about being on here without a clio, about a third of folk on here don't have one.
Cambelt 5 years or 72k (whichever is first)
Aux belt 3 years or 36k (whichever is first)
Your looknig at about £500 for them from a specialist (for the pair, not each)
I'd have them done asap & a full service too.
