Loads of vintage stuff around Ilkley yesterday afternoon, was there a local show on anywhere?
There was one on at Burley in Wharfedale. I didn't go but someone I know tagged themselves in there. r1chie said:
Saturday morning spotted Silver Golf GTI at Chap A squash club - PH Smiley theBALDpuma. Totally forgot and then saw one of your posts which reminded me!
Woo first spot in the golf. Figured I'd need a sticker with it being a silver VW, haha. I'm not sure I'm sold on the username sticker though... Might be a bit much!Are you a member there then? Quite a few nice cars in the car park sometimes.

It will have been insured by the owner/leaseholder but probably not insured adequately by the person renting it.
Too many incidents of idiots showing off in high powered metal that they have no real experience of and it usually ends up with them ttting something.

In what world could the driver not be adequately insured? He's either insured or he's not.
How could the renter find it preferable to agree to more than 4 years from an unsecured debtor to get his money back versus getting the repair done and paid for now by an insurer?
It smells more than a very smelly thing living at 1 Smelly Place in Smellyville.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the driver was insured via their drive other car cover on their own policy. In what world could the driver not be adequately insured? He's either insured or he's not.

I hired a diesel C class once through a friend of a friend who runs a generic hire place as I needed a car for a few days. All I had to do was show them my license as proof of identity and was told to sort my own insurance out. I paid £300 to use it for 3 days. That was probably what they were paying per month to lease it.

Seen so many insurers now making DOC cover optional that i can imagine a lot of people don't realise they aren't insured, same with legal protection.
Interesting bit is surely the hire co has a duty to ensure the vehicle is adequately insured so should really be asking for proof they driver is legally covered.

Yes - down there at least a couple of times a week. Mine's one of the handful of M4's that frequent the place. Careful if you boot it up the road there, mate of mine had a letter through from the police, residents complaining of "excessive speed" and threatening "enforcement"..... Are you a member there then?
