How to get a great car insurance deal in 2016
How to get a great car insurance deal in 2016...

Hi,

It's always good to know if there are special deals to be had. Maybe deals that are not available to Joe Public. The Chris Knott Insurance scheme is one such deal that rewards car enthusiasts with better car insurance rates just for having joined up with this club/forum.

OK, so what's the deal? What makes it different to all the other car insurance providers?

Well, the insurers on our panel believe that you'll be a be

Fastlane Car Show 2016
22nd May at Albermarle Barracks, Harlow Hill, Newcastle NE15 ORF

We went last year when it was at Hexham - there was quite a few club stands but not a lot of trade stands.

Think it would be a good local stand - not sure everyone would want to travel too far for it as it's not just Vauxhall based.

Thoughts?

Try us if your car insurance renewal has gone up this year
Apparently car insurance rates have risen by £100 over the last year (Daily Mail article).

[b]If you find that your renewal with your existing provider has gone up please give us a call to see if we can beat your quote with our special car club member scheme. The scheme performs even better when the rest of the market is put

Polishing a car
Is this car polish machine any good? Has decent reviews and seems ok. I've never polished a car before and I'm not looking to spend much (I know you get what you pay for). May look for same one else where as I know halfords cost more than other places.

Car theory
Nothing to do with astras but I'm watching "James mays cars of the" and he is test driving an electric car... Iv got a theory..

So if your electric motor is powering the two front wheels obviously moving the car and therefor the two back wheels just rolling.

What if you somehow connected the rear wheels to two or a single generator in turn inducing a voltage that then gets transfered back to the front engine and therefore minimal electricity getting uses.

P. S if it works I want money..

Claying a car for overspray/paint
Right so i took my car to get sprayed a week or so ago and i can see some small bits of paint where he must not of wiped it when wet etc, and not its stuck on my car dry.

People are saying for me to clay it off. So I've bought the G3 clay mitt from halfords. 

But i was just wondering, if it will take the black excess paint off, how come it wont take off any other paint from the car?

Online Car Club Insurance Quote with Prestige Renewed! Modified & Standard Cars!


We trialled this a few months ago. At the time, feedback from Tom ‘Gudzy’ of 350Z-uk was - ‘around 10% cheaper than my current policy....(and you were slightly more expensive than them when I took out my policy a few months ago).’

That’s great to hear AND we’ve also reduced the prices even more since the trialling (my quote went down by £200!) so we have now launched our online quote designed uniquely f

Anyone have the Car Vision headunit?
Hi, any one got this headunit installed? I just had one installed and whilst it looks really nice and the integration with all the controls is nice I have some quirks. Wondering what others have managed to do to fix them..

My biggest gripe is the navigation audio. Its seems to do different things depending on what music source is playing, none seem perfect:

Radio is playing: To be honest this is the best one, it completely stops the radio so you can hear navigation fine
