Hi all,
I was going to make a few mods to my DSport Plus 155 THP. I was only going to put in a K&N Air filter and a FORGE BOV Spacer.
Thinking about how insurance companies are I decided to ring mine, have spoken to the girl on the line from MORE THAN she told me that they would not insure me if I put either of those mods on my car.
She had spoken to their so called technical dept who said that the mods would not be aloud due to performance gains.
I told her that this was madness as any gains from both of these would be so small having an adult passenger would negate them.
But she could not budge.
The other interesting thing she told me that i'm not sure she should have is that if you have any significant claim against your insurance an assessor would be called out and he is told to look for any modifications however small so that they can void your insurance.
Guess what i'm saying is be careful with any aftermarket mods such as mine or exhausts or anything else (not sure about re-,maps do know how they could find that)as you will all know when you get your insurance they all ask if the car has been modded in any way, don't lie otherwise your might as well not have any insurance.
Im going out know to put the standard air-filter back in I cant afford to throw away £12K.
by the way im 46 with a clean license with 9 years no claims but that did not matter.
MORE Than Can also go F*** themselves in future.
good luck.JH
