Tune Up your Car Insurance as Well as your Car

If you’re a motoring enthusiast, a new piece of kit for your much-loved vehicle is difficult to resist – however, unless you’re careful it could invalidate your car insurance claims.

In January this year, Ford’s RS tuning firm announced it had teamed up with Mountune Performance to offer two new exciting pieces of kit for the Fiesta ST.

The Stage 1 kit (priced at £1,435 plus fitting) includes an engine tweak to produce 162bhp, a new air-induction and exhaust. Stage 2 meanwhile (priced at £1,838 plus fitting) includes the same upgrades but takes the power to 182bhp and includes new camshafts and valve springs.

The only downside is that on top of the price for the kit, these optional extras could bump up the price of your car insurance.

Your chances of gaining cheap car insurance if your car has ‘go-faster stripes’ are greatly reduced because insurers look unfavourably on vehicle modifications seeing them as a hallmark of ‘boy racers’ rather than safe and considerate drivers.

The solution is not to keep your insurer out of the loop, either. If you’ve made a modification to your car and not informed your insurer, then, should an accident occur, your claim could be invalidated.

Insurers demand honesty – your premiums are based on risk factors such as where you live, your driving record and the type of car you drive.

Altering your car alters your insurance. However, that doesn’t mean you have to sit on an inflated quote.

By shopping around for cheap car insurance using a car insurance comparison tool you can make significant savings. So if, after modifications, you’re not happy with what your insurer offers, look for a better deal. Search by manufacturer, such as Ford car insurance, and your savings could be enough to afford a new piece of kit!

All-new Mazda6 and Mazda3 MPS Extreme

Proudly taking centre stage at the Mazda stand this year was the all-new Mazda6 mid-sized sedan.

The new Mazda6 is the second Mazda new generation product to evolve to the next stage, further deepening the emotional connection between man and machine - Mazda calls it "Kizuna"

Mazda Australia also sprung a massive surprise by unveiling a concept version of the Mazda3 MPS hot-hatch in the form of the Mazda3 MPS Extreme.

Tuned in-house by Mazda's Australia Motorsport manager Allan Horsley, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has been re-programmed to increase the 2.3-litre DISI turbo engine's power to 210 kW at 5300 rpm and 425 Nm of torque at 4400 rpm.



The Mazda3 MPS Extreme is equipped with a free-flowing two-inch exhaust system, a sports muffler and a 25 mm lower suspension tuned by Murray Coote.

Mazda3 MPS Extreme sits on 19-inch BBS Motorsport rims with Dunlop Sports (225/35ZR19) complete with a MPS monogram on the wheel centerpiece.

2009 Maserati GranTurismo S unveiled

Maserati has officially revealed its performance-oriented GranTurismo S, following the leak of two images online. The GranTurismo debuted a year earlier at the European show, so it seems fitting this sportier variant will break cover at the same venue.

The GranTurismo S is powered by a 4.7 liter V8 in place of the regular GT's 4.2 liter unit. Output is 440 horsepower — a nice boost from the standard 405 horses.

An advanced MC-Shift dual-clutch transmission will replace the ZF six-speed automatic.

New high-power Brembo brakes will improve stopping distance. The system features front brake discs made with dual-cast technology — a dual casting of cast iron and aluminum, paired with aluminum mono-bloc 6-piston brake calipers

The exterior has some subtle visual enhancements, and the interior is upholstered in Poltrona Frau leather and Alcantara for increased luxury.
