Claim on your insurance, about £50 and doesnt affect your ncb

what he said, just had mine done ^ make sure they order a gel pack for the wipers. (if that applies to the mk1s?)

I didn't think you could get TP insurance on a 172??

Neither did I!

What insurance company let you do that?

what it is i swopped cars on my insurance, i used to be tp on my vtr and have just swopped to the 172 its with a company called premium choice

I still don't understand how they agreed to let you do this. I only have a 1.6 and because of the value alone, fully comp was the only option, (not that I wanted tp anyway) and I am more than twice you age! I am pretty shocked that an insurance company has allowed a 20 year old tp party on a 172! Don't get me wrong here, it's obviously to your advantage that they have allowed this, and good luck to you, it's just I find it really odd that someone so young managed to get tp on a 172! ~Shrugs~

check the policy is valid mate, anything generally worth 5 grand and up has to be fully comp
