Happy to put a set on mine for comparison if needed

Just renewed the insurance with Peter Best. Made enquiries re the fitting of X Powers and advised that there would be a 15% loading. No doubt you would agree it's worth the extra.

Do they think someone is going to Nick them?.

I understand a loading for after market Alloy Wheels but an exhaust? Do they increase the power by 15%?

and would get back onto them and ask to speak to Matthew, I'm sure mine made no difference to their premium?

Bit outrageous surely? For an MGR option that could have been fitted from new....

The difficulty is proving it if one doesn't have original bill of sale

I have never declared my xpowers as they are a facory fit option and I had no problems when 545 was wrote off with them on

**ColinE** · 08-03-2010, 04:38 PM

Thanks - was planning to go that route next time round, hadn't crossed my mind before

**Q-car** · 08-03-2010, 05:53 PM

Thanks to you all for your suggestions. I quite like the one submitted by Eurorover particularly. It just makes you wonder when dealing with Insurance Cos., as to what added extras add on the extra.

Me, I declare any mods / extras, still doesn't cost me any more!
