I’d say they will look to recoup the loss by increasing everyone else’s premium. Irrespective of it being a specialist insurer. Media insurance is completely different to our bog standard car insurance. As is insurance in all walks of business. Such as police, or fire maybe... 🤔 Quote

Traf Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 My dad had all of them at some point plus the Granada & Sierra, but the one I remember most was the Zephyr. It had a full front bench seat rather than 2 individual seats. Quote

Don't know they're born. Worrying about what gender they are rather than trying to survive a trip to see their gran on a Sunday in the back of a van! Quote
bolton_blondie Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 (edited) My grandad had a car and it didn't have seats, it had benches. How he got 13 kids and my Nana in too I will never know 😂 Edited March 14, 2021 by bolton_blondie Quote

MickyD Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 The first car I remember my old man having was a Ford Classic (PEN 674) then a Rover 2000 (66 YYC) Then he got promoted at work and got a company car every couple of years; Triumph Dolomite (VNC 671L) then a Triumph 2000 (PEO ???P) How the fuck do I remember all those registrations? Apart from my very first car; Ford Capri (WDK 121T) I don’t remember any of mine. Quote
