Yep, now THAT's a legal mess

This is the sort of mess I wish people heard more about though, people just don't get the possible implications of playing fast and loose with your insurers. I think the only way it would get worse would be if the same insurer covered both vehicles.

What do you think the final result will be?

Oh... this one is done and dusted (right leg), solicitor managed to persuade them that whether or not this mod was disclosed it would have no effect on the outcome of the accident (took 11 months for this to happen, guess they didn't think I would keep fighting it).

Now in the process of a claim regarding another near fatal accident (left leg injuries), looking good so far (legal wise).

Nice one... Yeah, quite often in complicated insurance cases the law's not the important part, it's more down to patience/stubbornness who wins. So good on yer.
