Insure your vehicles.

At least for the damage they can cause. You should at least have 3rd party cover in place before you put the key in the ignition.

Seriously. Give up beer, or women or whatever - and find the premium. It could save you your future.

I just gave up song... the FJ hasn't got a CD player... Wine and women.....NEVER.
HEALTH insurance is advised, as much...if not more. Often overlooked.

yeah - but if you own the MG it will eventually make you feel like damaging it yourself. I could have hit mine with an axe.
