hello
I have been quoted £150 by a garage to make my torsion bar higher, this needs to be done so i can insure my car, (churchil are doing me fully comp CHEAP) but they cannot insure any one with mods below the age of 25, im 19 and 1st time driver I have a saxo westcoast which is on the floor, can anyone recomend local garages they have used or would anyone do it for a better price?
Thanks
Jordan

I Havent yet they dont know, my parents the most annoying people in the world and are going crazy at me about it, Im tepmted to to tell them and just insure it as standard, if I was to crash would they still pay out for the other car? and then just not mine or just deduct money from my claim? Will I bought it like this I thought it was standard do?

lets hope you dont have an accident, otherwise you'll lose your car, your money, and probably get a conviction

exactly play dumb!
my saxo was written off and i declared it standard
it was lowered, had upgraded rear and front lights, exhaust etc etc
if u so crash though..... take the bits off that you can and put them to normal if you can then play dumb to the rest of it all!
