    Cool - I'm famous! I've just realised I'm on the Money Tips E-mail. Thanks Martin - brought a smile to my face (bigger than the one I already had!) :money:

    I have to say I'm still not 100% convinced - and won't be until I'm driving around in it - when I got that e-mail from them yesterday, I sat and stared at it for ages, convinced it was a scam somehow! (I'm a born pessimist - anything too good to be true ... etc, etc). :rolleyes:

    How does the insurance work - if I only have the car for, say, a month, can I get 11 months insurance payments back?

    I believe that Budget Insurance used to do a monthly policy so you only paid for what you used!

    At the moment, I'm just still keeping my fingers crossed that I get it!! It's been over a week since I received an e-mail from them saying they were in the process of registering it - I've been told that this process should only take a matter of hours, so I'm starting to envisage them frantically checking the small print to see if they made a mistake! :rolleyes:
