I've decided i'm doing a Pass Plus course too, which means you get taken on motorways and through the centre of London for a total of 6 hours hard-driving experience. After which a pass gains you 10% off your Insurance, equivalent to 1 year no-claims-bonus, YAY!:beer:

No ambulances here at work, so can't steal one unfortunately!

But if you're ever coming over to Enfield way again...let me know, and if i'm around we'll try to meet up :) Same to any UKer :);)

Good idea! :) I didn't have my own insurance when I passed my test, so never did PassPlus.

No claims, a lifesaver for me this year. Instead of £850 for my insurance, it's £400 for having my 5 year no claims. Still, women get the better deal.................no fair.

For me this year 4 Years (prevented from getting 5 thanks to some van driver still trying to make a flakey claim against me from May...STILL Ongoing!)....dropped my Insurance to £870 from god knows what!!....

Rich....Pass Plus....good idea...I should have done that....too lazy....and if you leave it more than a few months you have become too much of a casual drive.

Garry....I am up Enfield way usually at least once every month so will do!
