So much for all those insurance Jonahs who have been saying that if you so
much as put a cigarette lighter in you invalidate your insurance.
My insurance comes up this month so I though I might as well tell them that
I have taken the seats out the back and converted the thing to a camper.
No worries, makes no difference. It has gone up slightly to £134, but thats
still fully comp, unlimited mileage and I can leave it where I like
overnight (within reason, I guess they would not approve if I left it in
tidal waters overnight)

whether it affects the premium is not really the issue. The fact you
have declared the change means that they can't use it against you in
the event of a claim.
BTW, does anyone know what the rules are for losing no claims bonus?
The Volvo is in for a new rear wing and door (the dent was a wedding
present from Mandy). Will I lose all my (full) NCB, or just part of
it?
Mandy's Dad laughed when she said she'd crashed my car. He stopped
smiling when he heard who's car she'd run into....

Yes. They can't say "you didn't disclose..." (assuming you have the
mods in writing). They will, of course, find something else...

I thought that was specified acceptable under the legistlation, although I seem to
recall a bond of X amount had to be lodged, where X is a rather large number.
