same for my box van..

my jumbo also had issues the same, the chap on the other end put it down as a 125 ( 137 psi really) don`t know what will happen if theres a claim :evil:

I wonder if Insurance comapnies ask the manafactorer for engine details on models or whether companies like ford volenteer there info to insurance companies, there must be thousands of ford vans out there with dodgy insurance, I wonder if Ford no about this.

NU have just entered my model (260 swb 85ps) to the system. How long until the other companies "see" it - I could do with going with Budget, as the price is great.

Price will change when they get the correct details.

RAC every time and breakdown cover, used them first for my mk5 then the mk6, cheaper than anyone including being 50% less than my trade bodies special deal! Due to trade I carry petrol for mowers, 2 stroke for strimmers, and liquid weedkillers and I was honest and specified this, how else can I trade without it and if the van burns down.... they knew what was in it so no backing out of paying!

If it's too good to be true then it is, nothing is 'free', and pessimism is a religion:D
