    AAAAGH! Does ANYONE offer fully comp cover on driving other vehicles?!!

    YES! Well I have had a modicum of success here and just wanted to share in case anyone else happens across this thread. You CAN get FULLY COMP cover to drive another vehicle, it's not like I used to have which was all the time any vehicle, but it's the best I think we're gonna find. Here's how...

    AAAAGH! Does ANYONE offer fully comp cover on driving other vehicles?!!

    Great idea. Don't let their insurance industry know how it works here, they'll see Franc signs everywhere! I can't respond to that, I am out of breath with laughter. Never heard of Adrian Flux, maybe I need to investigate that, thanks.

    AAAAGH! Does ANYONE offer fully comp cover on driving other vehicles?!!

    Jesus, that's insane. I have researched all day. Two are worth a PHONE CALL (not online) to discuss quotes, Admiral and Aviva PREMIUM (not AvivaZero, Aviva Online, or just plan Aviva, only PREMIUM!). The Aviva Premium offer 3rd party cover on other cars as standard but says "Comprehensive -...

    AAAAGH! Does ANYONE offer fully comp cover on driving other vehicles?!!

    Yes it seems it wasn't as common as I thought, I must have just been lucky. My friend is 62 and he remembers having it for a long while too, but said it wasn't exactly 'standard'. I had a good broker I used for many years and they probably just shopped around and kept me having fully comp for...

    AAAAGH! Does ANYONE offer fully comp cover on driving other vehicles?!!

    if it's not rude to ask (and not meant to be), are you young, say under 30? Maybe you've never heard of it, but it was once THE NORM! I was never insured to drive every car in the country, but had many years of driving with fully comp cover on any vehicle I was given the keys for. Quite simple...

    AAAAGH! Does ANYONE offer fully comp cover on driving other vehicles?!!

    Effing world's gone to 5hit. I dont want a temp add on, I just want like I used to have, fully comp all the time on other vehicles not owned by me and with permission (DUH, otherwise it's TWOC). Ain't that the truth. I suspect the war on motorists will kill any desire to drive a car pretty...

    AAAAGH! Does ANYONE offer fully comp cover on driving other vehicles?!!

    I have wasted hours trying to make sense of bots and live chat morons who can't answer a straight question, wondering if anyone here might cut the research time down! Does anyone know of ANY company that offers car insurance with FULLY COMP cover to drive other vehicles, rather than just 3rd...

    Disco 2 Variable Vain Turbo anyone?

    Refugees are welcome here. (Just not in my house, garden, street, town, county ideally. Anywhere else is great.) I wear a mask to protect others. (Despite what it says about my IQ) I hire non-whites to help achieve equity. (Despite it being the definition of racism) I take my 3 year old to...

    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    This is double dutch to me but will do some research and learn more as it's interesting. More detail may help: 2004 TD5 which was a minter when I got it a few years back (still very nice condition). Have spent a lot (chassis replacement for one thing!) I sent ECU to Dynachip. Was never happy...

    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    Sorry, looked at all pages and couldn't find this. Found 'Dealer Portal', is that what you mean? So I need to apply for an account and then may be able to download original map?

    Disco 2 Time for new turbo?

    Do you still rate this? What is the difference? I am looking for affordable ways (IF any exist, I suspect not!) to reduce the turbo lag on my D2 manual. I hate the lack of power until it all kicks into life, which only happens at revs that I don't normally drive at. I'd like quicker response...

    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    Great thanks, will have a look Didn't realise that In that case it sounds like the map is the problem. Funnily enough, I have always had a plume of whitish smoke when under engine braking (like downhill holding a lower gear). It worried me at first (head gasket) but that's fine. The car has...

    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    That's an idea I hadn't thought of. Hopefully will avoid it being necessary but a nice idea i may consider if needed.

    Is Mike from Dynachip.co.uk still around?

    Thanks. Have to say I was never happy with my remap, no disrespect to Mike, I didnt send ECU back to adjust or anything. I ended up having another one 6-12 months later which is a lot better, but now I need my original map back if poss so was hoping he may have a copy of it he could send me to...

    How to get original factory map for TD5 D2

    I need an original D2 Manual map, or just need to see the 'insides' of one to manually adjust mine so it passes emissions. Don't suppose anyone knows of one lying around I can take a few settings from? (My D2 was remapped, but I don't have the backup of the original map, which I now need to put...

    Is Mike from Dynachip.co.uk still around?

    The website is down. He was suggested to me a few years back on here. I sent my ECU to him and he remapped it. Looks like he's disappeared for good but wondered if anyone here knows him or has any contacts for him.

    D2 - Constant 'Lights On' Chime sounding when driving - any ideas?

    Thanks, yes I know what Hill Descent Control is and what a Transfer Box, just didn't equate your abbreviations to them as I never use them, but I know they're there! That's a very easy thing to check, I'll do it now!.... HOLY sh** - You're a genuis! It was indeed pushed in, no idea how, but...

    D2 - Constant 'Lights On' Chime sounding when driving - any ideas?

    Thanks very much. Could you just let me know what HDC is and also TB, I will look into it tomorrow and report back. By the way, a new gearbox was fitted just a few days prior. And also, bit of new info today maybe... when the noise goes off after a while, if I open the driver's door the...
