Sorn...what a load of nonsense!!!!!
What about those beautiful crisp clear winters days in the old country, cold air =more power
Totally agree too What about those beautiful crisp clear winters days in the old country, cold air =more power
I bought my 390 to use ALL year round and in winter (roof off obviously
) it's F
g freezing as it has no heater whatsoever !!! The previous owner decided to get rid of it and in place put all the stereo power amp wires etc. !!!I just simply wrap with loads of layers
So come on everyone, stop SORNing your tvr's and use them all year round
My take is that I believe things are better off with a bit of regular use otherwise things start to seize up and stop working. Lay the car up for winter then come spring you spend the first couple of weeks fettling and fixing. mine will be staying on the road to take advantage of any bright clear days that come my way
mine will be staying on the road to take advantage of any bright clear days that come my way Anyone had this and is it legal??
Bewise have told me that Allianze,( with whom my chim is insured with full comp), that they dont do 3rd party F & T! Which is lovely except I asked for it to be put as F & T only.....so they write back and say..........
Good Afternoon.
Thank you for your recent email.
Please be advised that your insurer only provides three types of insurance, Comprehensive, Third Party and Third Party Fire & Theft.
As previously advised to amend your current policy to a Third Party Fire & Theft cover the insurance policy becomes an unacceptable risk to your insurer. Therefore should you wish to amend your policy to a Third Party Fire & Theft, your current policy will need to be cancelled and an alternative policy will provided.
Please contact our office to discuss how you would like to proceed with the policy.
Should you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our office via email or by telephone on the number below.

I think what the insurance company is saying is that the old policy has to be cancelled and a new one issued because of the change to the type of insurance required. In some cases the underwriters may be different as not all underwriters provide TPT. Consequently, they would cancel your existing full comp and provide you with TPT possibly from a different underwriter. Naturally they would refund you the remainder of your existing policy.
As for putting the car on SORN, it's something I never do. I pay insurance for the whole year and have MOT for the whole year, so by putting on SORN for a few months is neither here or there. Anyway, there's nothing like taking your Wedge out on a sunny, cold, crisp day and driving it with the top down, wearing only your vest. You should try it sometime. It's like taking a cold shower. So refreshing.

Flapper + 32'F = permanent crackles and bangs, upshifts as well as downshifts, 5krpm on the upshift = shotgun, and all from something virtually unmodified since it left the factory. Good sightlines on interesting roads (none of that pesky greenery) and very few day-trippers, where's the issue with winter driving? On dry days with no salt of course!
Although slippery tyres below 50'F is a problem
