Not doing so just proves the persons stupidity if you cannto afford the extra £ then don't do it.

And what do you do when it gets towed to a recovery yard and is assessed there?

FFS people. Just declare them.

If you can't afford to insure your mods, then you can't afford your mods.

Most insurance companies won't be too arsed if you cause a grands worth of damage to your car, but if you rear end a lambo, you'd better believe they'll be looking for a way out of payng for it.

I've said this before, it's very easy for insurance claims to get vvvv.expensive (10's - 100's of K's with very little effort), and insurance companies don't make money by paying out on claims.

Cancel your insurance and go elsewhere or remove the suspesion is it realy worth being left in the lurch when your iunsuracne don't pay out as has happened before with lowered cars which havn't ben declaired?

I forget the member on her his ca was a write of brand new 1.2 16V so what £10k debt and no car insurance refused to pay. thankfuly he didn't damage any other car ele he'd be paying for them as well.

 

[Jay_clio]

you no about any1 who will give me insurance, iv got Pass plus, some insurance say that = to 1 year NCB other said its only a small percentage off, i have litrelly (sp) looked every where, i have ried ffoning around but most of them closed at 5.30 and that when i reach home from work, so online is the only way i could do it. at the moment its £982 Thrid Party fully comp wanted 1600,
