Whenever I've bought a car I've had a quote lined up. Bought the car, sat in it on my phone to call the insurance company, quote the number, buy the insurance then drive off knowing I'm not a twat. | |

If he said he bought it he's not insured driving it under other cars anyway. | |

I got a letter of dvla or vosa yesterday saying my car was not on MID as insured. I pay over £3k a year for my traders and the wankers at my brokers forgot to put it on . Then the cunts said I have a 25k limit and to put it on they want a further £500 . | |

Why didn't you just buy temporary insurance online? | |

If you're fully comp aren't you insured 3rd party on other cars? Assuming the previous owner had the car insured. | |

I think every car I've ever bought I've never insured until I got it home. | |

No idea but to be fair no insurance is very "felt" spec. Doubt you will get out of it, shit happens. | |

You drove knowing full well you weren't insured because you couldn't wait a day or two? Bit of a silly move that. Get legal advice, but as I showed you, he didn't have to give you anything because he told you his intentions. | |

Didn't forget, insurance company was closed so couldn't get it changed over to the new car, my old car was still insured fully comp but obviously that doesn't matter as it doesn't cover any other car, if I'm fucked I'm fucked but if theres a chance that because I still haven't been issued a ticket I can get away with it then I'll take it | |

Not sure if its different over there, but the whole NIP within 14 days thing isn't black and white. He doesn't have to give you one at all really. If he cautioned you at the time, or told you it'll be a court summons, that's adequate information. | |

I was caught for no insurance on Sunday 24th August, police officer who dealt with the situation seemed a bit of a twat and didn't really know what he was doing as he didn't know how to arrange for recovery truck etc and when he did seize the car he didn't do a check list for any marks or damage on the car, he was giving me a fine of £200 and 6 points which I said I would accept but he didn't have any tickets on him at the time so he took my phone number and said he would contact me when he was back in my town. The only paper work I received on the night was a seizure notice for the car and nothing else, nothing to do with the offence etc. |
