Some people honestly don't deserve the cars they own

The issue with that is you are then penalising those who cannot or simply choose not to own a car and drive with an additional burden that those of use who are able bodied and financially able to choose to do.

Boo hoo, it's not like it doesn't work the other way round here is it? Why are motorists in the UK penalised with excessively high fuel tax to fund boob jobs on the NHS for emotionally insecure people, cancer treatments for 40 a day smokers, or fund the black hole in the governement budgets caused by moronic politicians that do not grasp the fact that they have no money left to spend? These things are not our fault, but we pay for them every time we fill up at the pump. Such is life...

Personally, I would love to it flipped around. Generally, if you own and run a car you are more likely to be economically active, and should be given some tax relief as such.

Im assuming Loonsta has never broke the speedlimit, smoked cannabis, taken cocaine, downloaded music illegaly, watched a pirate dvd.

Cant be on your high horse with regards to one minor infraction of the law, but then come down like a ton of bricks for another, ie, not declaring a few modifications.

well in my case i had the money sitting to do everthing legally yet no single insurance company would even quote me, what chance do you have?? if they see you as a high risk then fair enough, fire the price up, personally if i ever crashed my car id never go through insurance anyway as they always just try to get out of it by offering a total shite price.

this arguement has too many flaws, so loonsta, what would happen if you just bought a new car that was assumed standard, then 1 day you found out it had forged internals or something? hand urself into the police??

in my opinion alot more people would declair their engine swaps if it wasnt so difficult, i had to get an engineers report, write sevral letters, you name it, its more hastle than its worth and i wont be doing it again, wont be changing the engine again though lol

i can see the point if some 17 year old is running about in a b18 turbo civic and everyone else cant even insure a vti and hes running around like pig in ****. but i refuse to entertain an insurance company that tries to charge 120 pounds for rear privacy tints, no danger!
