    W164 M Class claims bonnet is open??

    Glass cover claims

    I got a big crack from a stone, whilst driving on M1 last week and was thinking of getting windscreen changed. I've never had one replaced before in 25 years driving. I might sound a bit naive, but when you make a claim for windscreen replacement, does that affect your claim history? Does it...

    No claims bonus

    Trying to insure my new (to me) car in addition to my E36. It seems that my NCD can only be applied to one car at at a time which means my premium for the new car is an astronomical £850! due to zero NCD. I hate insurance companies! Anyone got any recommendations / ideas / ruses please?
