Yeah, I asked the company and they couldn't give me an exact quote but said I'd be looking at £200+

Ouch.

I assume claiming for a new windscreen doesn't effect your no claims etc.  As in, it doesn't count as a proper claim?

My no claims are protected anyway but i'm pretty sure it doesn't effect it :undecided:

I don't really want to take if off the road tbh! I can use the gf's car for work as & when I want, I'll take hers a few days a week & save a bit of cash :wink:

Depends on the insurance company you're with (when getting quotes I saw some asking if I had claimed on the Windscreen, how long ago, for what reason etc), find out how much a heated MK4 windscreen would be  :wink:  :evil:
Passat B5.5 2.3 V5 170, with all the extras.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Plus it means I can no longer cancel the policy so the car is staying on the road :rolleyes:

Cancel you insurance and worry about the windscreen later, you could sort it with the new policy

Fraud alert?

I'm guessing that Wayne was suggesting that I leave the windscreen damaged, and cancel my insurance as I was intending to. Then when I put the car back on the road look into getting the windscreen replaced.

It's all completely irrelevant now though because I have a new screen fitted and the car is staying on the road :grin:

Good job on the interior bits, bad job on the mirror!...  :sad:

What were you doing, beating it on with a mallet!?  :grin:

Poxy little stone hit my dailys screen the other day, the chip is the size of the end of a tooth pic but has caused a crack nearly a foot and a half long!  :shocked:
