  • Bulk diss count 5 Dec 2009 (Ask HJ)

  • "Driving other cars" extension 25 Nov 2001 (Forum)
    s car but ?only if the car is already insured in it?s own right. If it has no insurance then the driving other cars extension does not apply? I wonder why this is as any claim could not be for damage to the 340 but only to cover a third parties loss.

  • Ford Focus II (2004 - 2007) - 05 1.6 - Anyone experienced clutch problems ? 15 Apr 2008 (Forum)
    Rarely have I heard of a clutch failing in any car at 43k miles, unless it's constantly been driven erratically. Most cars I have come across have covered well in excess of 100k on the original clutch. My old Peugeot 309 1.9D was still on its original clutch at 150k and my current 306 1.9TD covered 172k on its original clutch.
  • More Flexible Insurance 7 Aug 2005 (Forum)
    They claim I should have trade insurance however I have a friend in the trade who has been having problems with his trade cover because he hasnt been turning over enough cars - I understand trade policies expect policy holders to sell a minimum of 25 cars a year. I certainly wont be changing my car more than say 6 times a year but it does seem as though I will be unable to continue with my current insurer.

  • 2nd car diesel v petrol 1 Mar 2004 (Forum)
    A forthcoming job change means I need a 2nd car. As I only need the car for work, I?m trying to workout how best to ensure my running cost are covered by my mileage allowance. A small petrol engine car, e.g. Fiesta 1.1, Corsa 1.2, Peugot 1.1, gives lower insurance and tax, but a lower allowance of 37p/mile.
