Tricky

My Saxo has been off the road for about 7 weeks now. I have been driving my mums mini a lot of the time but feel the saxo is being left to wrot so to speak.

It needs a new bonnet & the exhaust is a bit worse for wear. It's also making a horrid clunking noise that a mechanic friend reckons is the top mounts. I'm not willing to throw £100 at it to find out it's no better.

As my road tax is just being eaten into I want to get it back on the road as it is being wasted being stored away whilst I try and get bits for it.

Insurance wise, i'm still waiting for my NCB off quinn which is really annoying me! Phoned them 3 times and they have said we will mail it to you. Not got it yet.

I do want to get it back on the road. I can get it insured with morethan for about £55 a month but can I cancel it after 2 months and get my deposit back when I come to sell it? Are these finance agreements easy to cancel so early on?

Thanks.

I think with insurance you only have 14 days to cancel, and after that you have to pay a certain % of the left premium if you were to cancel after that period.

With some insurers you can 'freeze' the policy, so you can continue it when you get another car

Ahh interesting. I will be getting another car.

Any idea who these insurers are by chance?

I think NU do it, i'm not sure who exactly. Best way is to just call and ask.

They charge stupid prices for Saxo's though.

Damn!

Yep, any idea what the cancellation charges are like?

Especially Morethan?
