My traders policey cost me £3800 this year, it sounds a lot but when you break it down its not that bad. Ive always got 5 or 6 cars laying about. £12k in tools ect
£10.000000 customer lybility employers liability insurance. it covers me my wife and my three mechanics to drive anything. Except the cossie of course.
