Well, you know, I think that an accident claim which lists both the accident, and details of the accident, forms an excellent basis for assessing risk when combined with thousands of other claims listing when accidents occured, don't you ? This discussion is, after all, about risks of driving...

No, I mean the insurance companies have it there in front of them on the claim form for their own use, and may well share on an industry-wide basis.

I recall reading a test carried out by the German magazine "auto, motor und sport" where back in the 90's they took a black car/black interior to Font Romeu in the French Pyrenees, which is where France erected the world's largest solar furnace -...

Don't you think acccident reports detailling times will be an excellent way of evaluating relative risk ?

I've just viewed another similar site - https://ftcdirect.com/pages/about-ftc - and the ****s are asking for £ 39.75 for a 2 litre engine !! It must be because of the technologically-advanced tin-antimony pellets.

I know nothing about your engine, but a useful technique i saw on YT was to cut your existing cam-belt in half lengthwise so that it is still on the gears and maintains all timings but leaves space to push the new belt over the teeth and push the old one off. This should ensure that you...

This telematics box will be for national safety statistics and has nothing to do with - and will not be linked to - insurance comapnies.

" The real question is: why are you so keen to defend him?" Because you seem to be a fanatic, and I am always very taken by the idea of having events portrayed fairly, which obviously fanatics never do( see next para about cars tested for example ) . Also, as I have previously said, I don't...

You appear to be so wedded to your view that you cannot believe anything else: calm down or the blood-pressure might go past the red line. As for the car tested, can you not possibly understand that it was simply offered to him and he accepted it ? He is a vlogger, not the motoring journalist...

(16 mins ) A road test of the Audi e-tron GT by high peak autos. He's doing a 230 mile drive down to Eastbourne from Stockport area, so all heavily developed, motorways etc. Brutal comments on charging infrastructure, eye-watering cost of charge, complimentary about car except its price - £ 93K

Hi I am re-coating my larch decking using an oil that is natural i.e. without solvents. It says that is can be thinned for extra penetration using turpentine. I don't have any and it's a long trip ( 30 miles ) to get any. Can I use white spirit instaed ? Thanks

I'd say an apparent acceptance by lots of new internet-linked companies that if 70% works, that's good enough and they'll sort the rest out later (maybe ) . Watch the video from 10:20 for 90 seconds: you'll get his general opinion and the real kicker about the stupidity of some charging...

I first found out about the fees watching a car-dealer's YT channel: the fees may be less but they are by no means low according to the numbers he quotes.

I also only had good experiences with auctions, however I see that BCA now adds buyers' fees to the auction price. They are pretty damn steep: £ 500 car - £ 250 fees £ 1 000 .. £ 398 £ 3 000 .. £ 521

Thanks for that tip, Freddie

Well you may not be listening, but your point doesn't help. I've just checked my settings and the only refusal I have , is for untarmacked roads and that is the only French Waze option for types of roads. Other choices are for ferries, motorways, toll-roads , pollution-zones and difficult junctions

How do you do that - or maybe give a link if it's long and complicated . Thanks

It would have to be a really tin-pot little outfit for it to be worth their while doing that for one car. Anyway, if you pay for any amount on a credit-card, the card company becomes liable for the full amount if you have grounds for a refund.

Unless you have studied the whole route beforehand - which I would never think of doing - how are you going to know that, especiallyt if you are just reacting to "take the next turning left "

That's happened several times to me as well More or less single -lane roads that would cause real problems as - in England - they do not usually have passing places. Sent down a really narrow road a couple of miles long somewhere near Rye or Hastings as well as some othe roads that I would never...
