Had an accident the other week in the Clio, everyone ok, car was driveable, not my fault, but going through as a 50-50 AFAIK.
Body blow today when got a message saying it was a write-off! Damage to passenger side between the axles but am shocked as the coachworks thought it wouldn't be.
The...
So last year i was 25 with 5 years NCB, and was paying around £565 for fully comp insurance on my Trophy.
Recieved my renewal today ( 25 with 6 years NCB ) and i almost fell over which shock, its gone up to £858, so after some shopping around and alot of googling and phone calls, the cheapest...

Hi All
Unfortunately somebody hit my Trophy a couple of weeks ago and as a result the car is a right off.
To summarise the damage amounts to a new rear left quarter panel possible new passenger door. On the right side I was pushed into the curb which has bent the stub axle and knackered the...

HI all,
It's the for me that we all hate and that's insurance renewal time :(
Also i need some new front tyres as mine are just over the legal limit.
I wanted to know who everyone recommends for insurance, i'm not using the car for track days or anything and it doesn't have any...
Having been snowed in two years running, I'm thinking my trophy has a profound disslike to snow. Ok, I know it is not designed for it. I love my Trophy, but this gets me down every year. My dad has a VW Passat oil burner (No I say!) and has no problems what so ever. So people, what cars are good...
Time has come to insure, tax and test my trophy. The car has passed its MOT but I've been advised that the front disks and pads could do with replacing. The car has only done 10k miles but the disks have corroded, due possibly to sticking pads. Naturally, the dealers said the warranty would...
i know theres probably already been a thread covering this but i cant find it, so basically my renewal is up soonish and i was looking for opinions on who to go with, im currently with adrian flux and i dont get my renewal quote for another few weeks, ive heard greenlight are pretty good just...

As some of you will know, I am in the market for a Trophy. However, I first have to sell my TT which is happening, albeit slowly!
Anyway, here are a few questions to get me started:
1. Will the Trophy run adequately on regular fuel i.e. 95 RON?
2. Would you recommend using 97+ RON? If...
Regardless of who is right and wrong between your man with the crocked car and Highway Insurance, its interesting to see them referring to posts he's made on a forum as 'evidence' of his dodgy driving.

I thought i would inform you of some shocking information that i found out while renewing my insurance.
When i purchased my Trophy last september Direct Line were my current insurers, so i phoned them and payed the additional £250. I payed this got the paper work through all was fine...
Insurance is up for renewal and i've now got 5 years NCB. Directline want an extra £130 to protect my NCB. I am in two minds if i should splash out the extra for it. Especially as the trophy is soon to become my weekend car as i just can't keep doing 500-600 miles a week in it. With that in...
How many people pay for it?
If not why not? Does your normal policy cover you? Are you so rich it doesn't matter?
I'm interested because I would never consider going out on the track with cover, but some people seem to be very blase. From various people I've heard it suggested that all you...
