...on my limited mileage insurance policy.

Only use the car weekends, but love driving it....what are the options?

i.e. if the company refuses to extend the mileage limit (despite bunging them more cash), can I legally have two policies on one car?

Anyone been here before?

Most companies let you pay the difference pro rata! You just change it to the next limit (unlimited?!)



-err, might have a problem here. The company involved refused to let me have the limit I wanted initially (6k), but were happy to let me have 4.5k for a very good price

Do you reckon 5 months of trouble free TVR driving will go in m favour?

Or why not just wind the mileage back a bit? (Assuming you haven't been daft enought o tell them already?)



-don't know how too, although I understand that it's not illegal for a private owner to do so!(?) Figured it would be cheaper and easier to buy a new speedo, I'm assuming they come with zero on counter

....but the mileage reading at time of incident would surely dictate which policy I was able to claim on?
