But the copper really shouldve have known more about what he was saying rather then talking…

Car insurance/finance
I'm after some advice please. I have had an accident in my car and although it looks a mess it is fine to drive.

My intention is to buy a new car…

I'm considering buying a new Ford Fiesta, one of the bottom-of-the-range ones, which seem to be reasonable value compared with second-hand Fiestas. I don't need a test drive, and don't want finance. I don't want any optional extras, and I'm not too fussy about colour either. I've noticed that some of the car brokers…

Car insurance whilst people test-drive car I am selling
Hi all I'm slightly confused as to how car insurance works when people are test driving the car I am selling. The literature I have read suggests I check potential buyers insurance documentation before I let them test-drive my car, but surely their insurance only covers them for their car, not to drive mine. And my…

Admiral/Elephant/etc customers....
Will they insure another vehicle for a day for a set charge? Aviva did this when I was with them and I've found a van hire company that will let me hire a small van for a good price if I provide my own insurance (I'm 20, so hiring anything is a nightmare)

Cycling to work
So it would be a 4 mile cycle to work and there is no shower or private loo where I could wash - it's a set of loos and shared basins. Is it possible to do this without being disgustingly sweaty and smelly all day at work? Currently I cycle in old joggers and t-shirts but I may invest in new clothing. I'd love to ditch the…

Want a car but no ideas what make or model!
Hi, Basically I've had Peugeots all my life but fancy a bit of a change. Main things I need with a car are reliability, economical running. I should have around £2000 - £2500 to spend. Want something around 1.2 to 1.4 engine. Not sure if petrol or diesel would be better? Someone said VW's are good but I don't think my…
