So, what mods do you have?
Im now concerned since I heard that L&V (who currently insure my MY99 + Ecutek + decat for £540ish) have changed their policy re modded cars.
I hope that the renewal will be as good but, hey, pigs might fly.....
What's Admirals view? Were they sensible?

I think a few of us are thinking of selling, but what instead?
Trouble is, I can't think of anything for the same sort of money that would give me the <sorry cliche time> "grin factor".
I used to change motors every year or so because I got bored.. - then i bought a Scoob, green wagon, did 50k in 2 years, bought another (DBM saloon), did 40k, had it modded, did another 35k and I STILL LOVE IT.
What do we do? Call (stick with it, stump up high insurance and keep it till it drops), Fold (buy a boring shed), or Raise (mod more and stump up even more)?
Sounds like you are folding, RB5 - what are you going to get instead?
