my punto

a nice leather sporting steering wheel would look good

Have you told your insurance compnay about all these mods?

i doubt it

Why whould he?. Its all visual and placebo performance.

Adrian Flux said my 'back box' changes my insurance and counts as a mod Even though it doesn't change performance.

Can I see some up-to-date picture's of the project please.

why do you want to?

technically it will change performance, even if you wont notice it - it is seen as a part of the engine system.

Well of couse it's a 'mod' but why declare it? chances of a claim getting tuned down due to an undeclared mod (unless its an engine transplant or turbo conversion) are very very slim.

actually yes i av told my insurance about it all and they said it was all ok... i had to pay extra for body parts tho and alloys and exhaust too

but the things i av done are all ok

and yes as soon as i get the chance to take some nice pics i will post them up

weather is a bit sh*t lol so i might do it on the weekend

Thanks

Gd for u for tellin thm, shame lots doubted b4 u could reply

Liking the car tho plus gd news that most of it doesnt change insurance much wooo

Just wondering, do you know how much extra you had to pay for those, as mine has an exhaust system which i haven't told them about (came with the car when bought) and when i replace the back box, i still probably wont tell them, afraid they'll charge me too much lol

any exhaustchange you HAVE to declare bacuase the can change engine power ad if the engine is more powerfl than standard.... well they wont like you if you crash thats for sure and they will check to make sure its all declared. engine mods of any kind should be declared.

Pfft... I know someone who causes a multi £Million claim for injurys of several people in a bus stand where he collided. This was with an undeclared Turbo conversion, full body kit, special paint, wheels, suspension, brakes, exhaust, £2000 worth of I.C.E, Induction kit. The car was taken away and they paid out no questions asked....... I believe Ghost_Wkd knew someone where something similar happened.

Declaring mod's is stupid its only a waste of money and makes them rape you for even more money. Only things worth declaring are changes to CC's (i.e engine transplant) or Forced charging. £200 a year extra for an induction kit that adds 4-5bhp is excessive especially for a driver my age (22 driving since I was 17 with not one claim or traffic violation) so I refuse to pay it.

i hate to say this, but i have heard similar stories...

and as much as i would like the peace of mind, you have a 99% chance of getting away with it these days.

oh well when you put it like that, i don't think ill be ringing them anytime soon (touch wood) lol
