Car not old enough to require an MOT. They could ask for receipt from last service, but they don't know what mileage was on it when the policy started.

Greenlight seem pretty flexible anyway (didn't charge me to add on business mileage) so I would just tell them if I went significantly over my estimate. Would really bother if I was only about 1k over though.

Plus, because my car had such low mileage on it when I bought it, even though I've put a fair bit on, it's still only got 19k on it and is only just over 2 years old, so dividing that by the age of the car, still doesn't breach the annual mileage I've told them. :wink:

In the past 12 months:
2500 in the exige
512 in the elise (yes that is embarrasing, I was going to round it up to the nearest 1k to save some face. Must do better)
