Re: Insurance

I would guess “commuting” is an extra risk due to the high levels of traffic on the roads when everyone else is commuting?? Still feels like a big con to me, miles is miles… I added 'commuting to work' over and above SD&P during the life of a previous policy, it had no impact on the premium, th...

Re: Macan GTS Order Placed - opinions please

Why take the higher risk with comfort access when you still have to use a key to start the car anyway, albeit a dummy that resides in the ignition full-time. I keep my Porsche key on the supplied key fob and separate from my house/any other keys. Should the worse happen and they break in to take you...

You might find that if you want to use an main dealer instead of your insurance companies recommended supplier (Autoglass) that you will have to pay a premium over and above your agreed windscreen excess than if you stick with Autoglass. Not had to have a windscreen replaced so can't help on how the...

Re: First service add ons

Re Drains being included in the standard service I can email them to see whether they are Is there anything official anyone has that confirms that they are? I think each OPC does their own things here, it is worth checking what is 'included' within your service, I checked with Tewkesbury OPC and th...

I know you can sc...

Re: Tool Update
