    Insurance!

    Mainly aimed at Richy I guess ( as he is in the buisness ), what sort of things can actually lower quotes ( apart from the obvious ). eg, above quotes adding girlfriend dropped the premium, others have mentioned say you park on a street, not on your driveway ( as a driveway gives more cover to...

    Knocking from the front during gentle braking ???

    On my Celica I had knocking from the back and bushes solved it, although I've know got knocking from the front - hopefully bushes or calipers. Then again, bushes should last for a good 50-60k or so, how old is your car?

    S3 driving

    Yeah, pretty easy if you have the knack, rev the engine let revs drop to the right point and shift, but you'll never get it 100% all the time and will miss occassionaly, thus shagging your gearbox.

    A3 1.8 T SPORT STOLEN...

    If it does turn out to be an error by the HPi people, it has certainly highlighted a loophole which could be easily taken advantage of by crooks.

    A3 1.8 T SPORT STOLEN...

    That's not the fault of the HPI people. At the time of the check it wasn't stolen, end of story. HPi just confirms it hasn't been reported stolen, not that it hasn't been stolen.

    A3 1.8 T SPORT STOLEN...

    Find out from the dealer if the name of the person who sold the car, was the same name of the person on the log book. ie - did the dealer ask for id to prove he was the registered owner of the vehicle. Not sure whether you have to be the registered owner to sell, but it's worth s try.

    Speed Camera

    Points and fines for speeding offences I can handle, because to a certain degree, they are there for a reason. Late last year I got 3 points and a £60.00 fine for a PC30.( Parking on a zigzag on front of a pedestrian crossing ). Which although I agree is also there for a reason, it's bumped my...

    3dr A3 1.8T Sport + child = ???

    Hi, When I start looking for the above, hopefully in the next couple of weeks, I will have to consider leg room in the back. I currently have a 2.0l GT Celica with a child seat in the back. My wife constantly moans about the hassle of strapping him in with little room to manoeuvre and then the...
