I'm assuming the mirror of NCD won't apply if the main driver is different  :(
Correct, I doubt they'd go for that.

However, you may be able to negotiate a discount based on the fact the other driver hasn't had an accident, just simply hasn't needed a car for a while....

SP30 is any speeding offence, not just at 30mph

Unlikely to be as easy, as it'll be CAN.  So you'll have to frig about with lots of ECUs to get the ficker working.

Fitted as standard on Exclusive up... V6 will have Tc and gearbox modes are on the shiftplate iirc, but only had the misfortune to drive one slushbox Vectra C... :-\

Have a Facelift Vectra C owners manual at home so will double check intmornink ;)

Thought they removed the ability to turn TC off on some cars as disabling it was a grey area for some insurance companies..... Strangely though we aren't all 17 and the vast majority of us have been driving long enough to have driven cars without ABS and TC. Any excuse from insurance companies to get out of a claim IMHO.
