It is madness :angry: you can hire a car for £30 a day but the same car it an insurance company is 4x's as much.

Ive had 2 hire cars due to insurance claims and both have been more than double what the repair cost was :sick:

And it was a poxy dieseasal Astra which they gave me....for £130 a day you'd expect something half decent :undecided:

Well I guess somebody is making a lot of money out of it all :smiley:

Yup, the insurance companies who rob us blind in the first place :angry:

So after 500+ miles this week the car is no longer as shiny as it was 7 days ago :cry:



Alike Rhyso I also have winter tyres ready, just need the temperature to drop so I can get them fitted.

Nope going to swap them onto the Monty 2's, that way when they need to come off in the spring I'll have an excuse to change the wheels as well :grin:

Fully legal pressed metal plates:



Just a quick one to show the bsau number:

I just quite like the blue! It adds a bit of colour :grin:

They look good on the car, I'll get a pic tomorrow.
