Odd...so if your car is stolen without the keys it's not covered. If it's stolen with the keys I'm sure they'd tell you you were careless leaving them lying around!

I'd be telling the FSA about that one!

That sucks :angry:

Surely the car is insured for damage though?!

If the car has been damaged either through vandalism; accident; theft or attempted theft then you should be covered?

I would be speaking to the insurance ombudsman about this - unless they can prove wilful neglect on your part then how cna they refuse the claim?

Moving the theft/attempted theft to one side, does your policy not cover for damage?

I know an auto is just put it into drive and go but a learner that has just passed their test does so methodically and if you change that sequence they will be all out of sorts.  Smart looking clean car but I'm not sure I'd be happy to pass my test in a manual then drive an auto if I'm honest.
