    But ten years and 6 owners later, how do you know what optional extras came in the packs, and which came with the car?

    Don't shoot the messenger :)!

    Sorry, just meant it's impossible to answer the question at that stage in the cars life.

    I think the insurers just have to accept no one can.

    We have a 22 year old car.

    Any modifications from standard?

    No idea, the interior may be different, I suspect the original wore out. The wheels may be optional extras, it certainly has been resprayed a different colour.

    (I have a kit car, they still ask me if it has any modifications, I tell them the gearbox, and the front axle are unmodified, everything else is, and they seem happy)
