What happens if you dont tell your insurance company?

In the past ive had cars with blacked out windows, big wheels..etc and never told them.


When I declared my JanSpeed Manifol/Milltek Exhaust and Open Cone Filter I was charded an extra £7. Tis year my premium went down!

So it 's worth telling them for peace of mind.

Also, what's the general consensus as a better looking tip for an R50? Meteor or Special?

I'm curious... how much do you think is reasonable to pay a local mechanic for fitting the milltek cat-back exhaust on the R50? Will there be any welding required or does it bolt on somewhere?

All the best,
Andrew.

Im paying £30 to get mine fitted at my local car modification shop. i know the guy and he has done some work for me before so is doing it for a little less.

And no welding is required, just bolt on

Right - one more bit of help I need before joining the Group Buy.

My R50 is a ONE but I plan to uprate the engine output with an ECU remap in the summer. The Lohen website indicates that you need to differentiate between the R50 ONE and R50 COOPER when selecting your details. Does this make any difference to the exhaust that's ultimately shipped out?

Many thanks,
Andrew.

well i asked that same question the other day when paying my deposit and as far as i am aware the exhausts are the same for the one and the cooper! i was told that the exhaust system in them were exactly the same for both the R50 models, but if i was booking on the internet i would make sure and state the correct model anyway just so they know what you have just incase

If you wanna come down with me one day and ask him properly. I asked him a few weeks back and he said £30. So come down with me.

And to ARCrawford, im in the same boat. If you have an R50 ONE select that exhaust. i think the fittings, hanging brackets vary or may change a little bit from car to car so best to select the one that applies.

And with the remapping/bluefin whatever you are going to get; considering some people get the bluefin with standard manifold and exhaust, getting the r50 one milltek wont be any different.
it will help infact
