You only need two tools in life: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.

Your Commercial Vehicle has not been modified in anyway and has the designed number of seats.


They don't insure any vehicles with mods, and reading there regs that includes things like wheels and a-bars!

I agree with 100ps. There are enough people driving about with NO insurance, let alone some that's shall we say a bit 'grey' rather than black and white? They get away with it, at least 100ps has GOT insurance. As far as 'gettign caught', it's all down to keeping your head and sticking to what you said to the insurance company.
