use two seperate sets of locking wheel nuts, and keep the keys for them in the house at night (whereas most people leave them in the boot or glovebox)

I'll be insuring mine with nationwide, found it far, far cheaper putting the old dear as a named driver, even though she hasn't drive for 20 years!

just thought i'd update you on the situation....

finally got my cover sorted - i've had to insure the car as standard for £42 a month 3rd party fire and theft this is because ive got to drive the car for a VIC check on thursday so i can eventually get it taxed and on the road. YAY  :grin:

When i renew in dec im lookin at £300 with 2yrs No claims, so then i can lower the b!tch and get things sorted. It's not that long to wait.......

least i might be able to get to leeds and get to meet you all!!!  :kiss:

Youv done ok in the end there. Im 19 with nearly a years no claims driving a 1.4 mk3 which is modified. Cost me £1200 fully comp after much shopping arround! Oh well, its the price you pay i suppose.

Good luck in meeting anyone from here, we mostly hide in caves well away from the outside world!

thats the best mk3 ive seen..ever! its just clean and subtle.. :cool:

You can put any one you like onto your own policy as a named driver, no matter what other car they drive or what there insurance policy is like.
My parents have their own 2 cars on other policies, and I still put them on my policy to bring my insurance down, even though it's unlikely that they'll drive it at any time.
