Well I know that when I had 4 cars in one year my insurance company got really funny about so many changes plus they told me that having 5 or more cars in a year could lead to being classed as a trader.
-
I have only ever had 1 insurance company that said maximum 8 changes in a 12 month policy
& i still had 4 months left on my policy :grin:
Since then i stick to about 5-6 cars a year
But they do love charging £25 for amendments
I have thought about a trader's policy, but it's not that i'm making money out of changing my car, as i do spend like mad on them
It's just that i do Love VW's & i want to drive as many as i can before i'm dead :smiley:
