Looks nice! Bright here up the other end of the country but windy and cold. Not a bike day.
Bright here now in the middle of the country but too bloody cold and windy for a bike ride, or a swim in the sea 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

Try H & R insurance in Aberdeen, I found them very good when I used to have my 1994 BMW M3.

H&R will not give me a quote on this particular vehicle. >:(

My renewal quote from Direct line has arriived today for our 1997 Merc SL500.

Price has increased from £305.16 fully comp in 2023 to  £406.49 on restricted mileage of 2k a year. All the excess have increased as well. Cover is Market Value of the vehicle & includes Green Flag break down, glass cover with an excess of £125, accident excess £500. Full NCB but not protected.

There were 9 pages in red ink of excusions & policy changes including Government Action, War or usurped power etc.

Anyone here who can recomend a Broker or Company for older vehicles that are not really classics, I seem to be paying more for less cover?

Back in the day most cars had number plate mounting holes fitted at the factory with a threaded dead eye or a plasic insert for a hex head type screw at the rear.

It was not difficult to affix a level plate - when I was doing new car PDI's and fitting plates on Vauxhalls & Opels if a plate was not level the foreman would send me back to the Stores to make a& fit a replacement.
