Who do you use?

She's stripped out, but thats it....

ideally i will be looking to update the suspension, chip her etc.

so who do you recommend?

I need to get her insured by this sunday...

If the car is only stripped out i would not tell them.There not going to add or take more money for stripping a car out.

HIC or adrain fluxm but if it's standard i wouldn't bother. Just say u took everything out as u have a bad water leak!

if it's stripped make sure u take the rear seat belts too then it can't fail an MOT.

just insured it as a normal car for Ԛ£386.

at the moment, the interior is out, and thats it-stock brakes/wheels/engine etc. so should be fine :cool:
