Mrs Cornholio had a 340 before I knew her. When me met, I was driving the work's van (Fiat -

). Although the van was a newish vehicle, it was a total shed. I used to play the 'which gear is going to vanish today' game. I seem to recall that last time I took it out only second and fifth remained. Oh, and you had to pray that it didn't rain as the wipers were u/s.
Anyhow, as I'd never had my own vehicle (except for the LHD 2CV, which I try not to remember), Mrs Cornholio insured Affie when we inherited her from grandad. She had a no claims bonus, I didn't. Now, seven years on, I've just got the Redline which Mrs C has insured for £150. I thought, for a laugh, I'd see what it would cost me to insure it.
£350! No way! So, hooray for girls and Volvos - saves me the cost of a year's worth of main dealer services.
Now I feel the need of a little 125 to ride around on for a year or two, so that I can accumulate a no claims bonus of my own. I'd love to have a '
My other bike is a Volvo' sticker on it. Although it would cease to be funny once I got lynched by a mob of irate bikers...
