I think you might find that if your insurance company finds out then you will have invalidated your insurance - in other words you will be driving without insurance....

Should be ok as long as you tell them, especially as most are probably effectively out of date.

Will tell the insurance company, but dont know why they weren't interested in any of its specs, just the basics and didn't even ask if it had any modifications at all, just when it was imported and registered.
mucho appreciated :wink:
