Careful Lads, we might end up with three hundred 8s all parked there

It would at least make the annual meet a bit easier.

With Tesco insurance I am paying just shy of £300 for mine. Fully comp with business use, second driver and 25k miles per year. Not bad I think...

At the end of 2012, I did manage to hydro-lock the engine on my last A8. The air suspension did not raise quite enough
Still, that has been recorded as storm damage. Since it was a flooded road. It seems storm damage does not effect the premium too much...

With any non fault accident, I will never put a claim via my own insurance company. I just inform them for information only and state that I do not wish to enter a claim. (I can always change my mind at a later date). Your own insurance Company do not always act in your interest and the policy authorises them to admit liability on your behalf. Hence you get these so called 'knock for knock' settlements. On the other hand, an accident management company will always act in your sole interests and will never admit liability on your behalf. Plus I choose where to have the repair done and I am given a like for like car (or better) whilst mine in being repaired.
