Retailers sticking their snouts into other established business`s by discounting & then thru a total lack of subject knowledge fail to deliver the message in the advert.
I`m ranting about supermarkets & others trying to sell car insurance.The ads say "Save £280 with us" or "we can save you 20%" etc.
Well,in my experence I don`t believe they can,not when the call centre staff know nothing about cars,in fact it`s not only insurance the big chains have problems with.Try asking Argos staff about the products they sell.Perhaps the problem is that the consumer will readily buy from a picture,e.g a Hi Fi set without hearing it first.A wide screen TV from the shelf of a store thats sells Baked Beans & Bog Rolls.

Chevy, you don't insure your car through CIS by any chance do you?
I've cut an ad out of the paper that say's "We gaurantee to beat any quote." Righto, I thought, soon as the Zody's back up and running, you WILL beat any quote, regardless. Any bullsh*t about "Oh we don't cover old/modified cars" and it'll be "I'm suing you for false advertising then, cos there's no exclusions in the small print!"
I`ve been asked is the car an import ?I say yes,just like all the other foreign cars on the road.Then they ask is the car built for Europe?Yes again I say "It`s even got the FFin steering wheel on the left just like in Europe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh shit,here we again,I`m gonna run for PM,then we can get outta this EU shite,use that big tunnel thru to France as a land fill site & tax the hell outta foreign companys operating here.
Does anybody know what benefit there is to a Brit in the UK belonging to the EU ?if so,please explain cos I must be a bit slow,I can`t see any at all.
This sounds a heavy for some of the peeps on here!
We were quoted something like £300 for the Rapier by CIS and that was with Bro-in-laws staff discount, Sniper tried one of the classic car insurance companies and got it for half that price.

Absolutly none whatsoever mate, it's the biggest f***in rip-off ever. It's purely for benefitting business, and an excuse for putting up taxes and prices. Vote UKIP next election and get us the hell out of it. SERIOUSLY. (Ooh, I can feel the sap rising again!)
The Camaro because it is moddified costs £180.00 PA fully com.Me mates Galaxie comes in at £85 fully com plus £10 per weekend when he does weddings & the like with it.The lads vette with 3 of us on is a tad over £500,which is pretty near legal extortion even though he is 17 & only just passed his test.
That's still a lot less than some of them are paying for insurance on here. More reasons to ditch the modern hot hatches and go for a rod. Plus in 10 years time a rod will still look cool, where as will a tarted up hot hatch? Hate mail to the usuall address.
