I risk going over my mileage allowance. Can that invalidate my car insurance?

If i go over my declared mileage, does that invalidate the insurance policy?

Yes, it can do if massively in excess. Alternatively, the insurer may charge an additional premium or may pay a claim based on proportionality, i.e. they may not pay out in full, but only a proportion of what they would have paid had they have known about the additional mileage.
