    I read of a recent case of a 17 yr old passing his test and being let loose in an Audi (a present) he was dead the following day - the tree survived. Can understand an insurance company saying no.

    Always an Audi.

    One of the teenager fermers where we used to live was given a shiny little S3 by Daddykins on passing his test.  Blasted it through a closed gate “A-team” style within 24 hours. All seven occupants emerged unscathed.
