    I am afraid that there is no simple formula, but there is an in-depth guide here. Also see Credit Rating in yellow in the menu above.

    Yes

    1 - take a piece of string
    2 - count the number of steps taken to walk to the car
    3 - divide by the number of letters in your maiden name
    4 - multiply by a random number
    5 - Add £2
