• Insurance - Cover Driving another car 26 Sep 2005 (Forum)
  Now the interesting thing is that nowhere can I see anything that states any damage I do to the other car I am driving is not covered i.e. Third party cover only. In fact "the damage you cause to another person's property" clause appears to comprehensively cover any car I am driving. On the face of it if someone had an uninsured Lamborghini I could drive it with full comprehensive cover on my insurance for a group 1 Fiesta.

• Insurer won't cover courtesy car 17 Apr 2006 (Forum)
  My insurers refused to cover a Citroen C3 courtesy car while my car is being serviced because the courtesy car is expensive!! They won't cover a courtesy car that is more valuable then your own car! Well then, my just over 3 year old C5 is then worthless and I can't be trusted with a nearly new supermini!.

• Warranty Purchase 7 Dec 2006 (Forum)
  Much has been said about Warranties - what they cover / do not cover. My experience was it did not cover what went wrong BUT Is there warranty cover available where you take the first say £250 of the claim? i.e. If you have a car you expect bills - a few Hundred pounds is not unsual but where it really hurts is if on a 3/4/5 year old car the Engine goes bang, the auto box refuses to change up/down, the ABS Pump does not.
