    Temporary Insurance?

    A tenner a day could work out expensive as I need a bit of work done on the other car, could be up to a month before I shift it. Someone said I could get temporary cover on an additional car for around £100 a month, still a bit over the odds but better than taking out a brand new policy I suppose.

    Buying Tips?

    It's been a while since I've been car hunting so was looking for some tips and advice; what to look for, questions to ask, etc. I'm looking at Freelander TD4's, years 2001 to 2003. One that appeals is a 2003 Kalahari spec with 110k miles, bit more mileage than I'd like but a very tidy car. Thanks!
