Alko hitch works fine on the factory fitted electric tow ball. It clears the rear bumper easily. Has others have said, clean all the paint off, also make sure you carry some abrasive strips as even if you use a ball cover, it will get surface rust on when tucked away. The 13 pin connection work exactly as it should do, everything connects.

Bonus with a Halfords battery is the 5 year warranty- better than the OEM one!

On my 12 day old 2.0 TDi 4x4 sport DSG, when I lift off the accelerator when going say down a slope or just slowing down, the indicator changes from D6 or D7 (or whatever gear I’m in) to just D - and it feels like it’s coasting in neutral. - Not tried the eco mode yet.

Finally re- joined the fold again! Had a Yeti 170 hp diesel about 10 years ago, loved the car did 70k miles in 3 years, only sold it because I was offered silly, silly money in part ex. ive just come out of a 9 month ‘ dalliance’ with a Discovery Sport - which surprisingly proved very reliable- but thirsty. After only a 6 month wait took delivery of a new Kodiaq 200hp TDI 4x4 Sport.lots of extras, sun roof, electric towbar, full leather electric seats, traffic sign recognition etc etc. still trying to puzzle out how things work, the virtual cockpit is fun, as is the ‘infotainment’ system. But the big bonus is fuel consumption, first day out, mixture of country lane, urban and fast A roads, 90 miles averaged 42 mpg - in the Disco I would have been lucky to get 30 ! The other bonus is that Mrs M will drive it, she refused flatly to drive the Disco.

Talk to your insurance company, they will understand. As long as the third party has admitted full liability (to their insurance ) their ‘side’ will settle your excess. If this done you should retain your NCB and not be penalised. Because they are a very large group trading under different names they will get this problem a lot, and know how to sort it. BUT get it confirmed in writing when it’s all settled!

Looking at the dates, I take it that it’s a DeLorian!

Churchill and Direct Line are both part of the same(Direct Line) group, all their policies are underwritten by UK Insurance Ltd (same group)

The important thing is to get your excess back from the third party. Either directly from them (you may have to claim in the county court) or better still from their insurance company. However you must inform your insurance company, even if the TP’s company is picking up the bill. Once you have got your excess paid by the TP then advise your company. Then, and only then will they record it as a no fault accident/claim

Sounds like you need a new thermostat!
