ur ment to tell ur insurance company, but its easily taken out if u do stuff it so its up to u



I used to think this about mods, until I crashed my car near Edinburgh on the way to T in the Park. My car was towed away, and I got a bus to T. An insurance assessor saw it before I did, and if I had needed to change any alloys or anything over, it would have been impossible. Ok, if reeeeeallly need be I could have had it arranged, but it would have been a real pain in the arse! Luckily my only mod (induction kit) was covered.

Oh n I can't see why it should fail your MOT. Unless it aint been installed properly or summit

Even if you use it n the cops see you n pull u, how can they prove that u used it at that specific time, as it will be gone! I've heard it can double insurance premiums in some cases, can any1 verify this?

does anyone know what the legalities of NOS are?, has anyone tried to insure their cars with NOS and does it fail your MOT if u have it fitted?
