Im asuming you want a policy that will prevent you from being being pulled over by the police when they scan your numberplate. Laid up insurance will not (when i last checked) add the vehicle to the motor insurance database (of which the police use with their ANPR cameras) As a previous poster said - the new type of insurance is not in force at ...

I had a considerable sum in fixed term bonds and on instant deposit with kaupthing edge. I was abroad on business when the news came that the banks had gone to the wall.
