Thank you i will :)

Sterling Van part of Adrian Flux... might be worthwhile mentioning i’m a member when i get the call back though...one of those wish i knew before kick myself moments now...sigh...

@Hippo :eek::eek::eek::eek: You’ll never guess who all this bother is with :(:(

@RangeRoller dt can you please recommend an insurer? Also i have a 5yr guarantee document (still valid for 3) on the battery so will raise any future issues through the fitters but definitely something to think on thank you

@Stanleysteamer how do i go about changing the V5? i had a look on the Gov.uk about the seats and it doesn't give any info since it suggests its not notifiable? Thank you and all other members for all your advice....i refuse to regret my D3 purchase despite all the obstacles thrown my way...

@Hippo If only this was so easy...i was all afternoon on Mon.getting the £1448 policy after ridiculously high 2-3k quotes and now.... drum roll please.. TODAY THEY WANT ANOTHER £384 :mad::mad::mad: WHY? YOU’LL LOVE THIS 1.... BROKER... “ The price quoted through the comparison site was based...

@Hippo the log book says 2 seats and i told the insurers about the bench at the time i bought it (because i couldn’t get renewal on regular car insurance they said it was classified as commercial so would need van insurance) insured with a different insurer and told them too...now they say its a...

Thanks @Hippo and @gstuart i’m currently trying to get a quote below £1600 :eek::eek: i’ve checked on the DVLA and it appears the modification doesn’t need to be registered but i can see how it may be advantageous if its possible to do so...thanks for the advice

Hi @Hippo yes but i bought it with the added bench seat and have a document stating it was fitted to LR spec etc...didn’t realise the issues i’m now facing...

Please Help...again Hi guys & girls i’m happy to say i finally got my car back on Friday and all seems well ;) I now have an issue with my own insurance cover.... i phoned to advise of its return and to check i was covered for carrying passengers since the bench seat had never previously been...

REMEMBER: The best education doesn’t make you smarter than anyone else...Common sense doesn't come with a degree..

@RangeRoller dt although i’ve grown to love it for all its luxurious features, where i live they are sported by and are the car of choice for drug dealers :( i wish it was just looks of admiration i was receiving but a couple of side by side intentional catch ups from the police leaves me...

Hi @Hippo would you believe i still do not have my car back!! Apologies for not updating earlier but i had to get my sanity back :mad::mad: Basically i was told by the CMC (claim management company) appointed by AXA the 3rd party insurers that they couldn’t get my car booked in for LR...

Thanks again @Stanleysteamer and @Hippo All taken on board but hopefully it won’t now come to that...lets see what the LR assessors say

It might be your car but technically it is not your case. The case is between the two insurance companies, you are a relatively bit-part actor in the play! Sad but true. The whole thing boils down to money, that's all they see. Not trying to be harsh or anything.:(:(:(:(:( Theres only the at...

I asked for them to email their report and findings but was told that may not be allowed due to data protection but he would ask??? :eek::eek: Data protection....its my car!!

Thanks all for opinions and advice Having had a lengthy conversation this morning with the engineer he now understands my concerns are not ‘about pulling a fast one to get any pre accident faults fixed’ ( although i still don’t know what the faults are ) more a genuine concern surrounding the...

Seriously doubting my decision not to pursue PI claim.... being up front and honest doesn’t seem to have done me any favours so far..:(

1) I didn’t think this would be a problem since they were ‘rolling out the red carpet’ to quote @Hippo comment #28 2) As for the driving without working speedo :eek: might explain why the garage denied any ( hard to believe) incidence of dashboard death during their driving of my car from...

Thats how i felt with the D2 it replaced...only just over 4 months ago.... so unfair...if i didn’t have S**T luck i’d have no luck :rolleyes::rolleyes:
