question for all those with LPG kits really; does having one fitted to the car increase your insurance premiums? isn't there a certificate of authenticity or something required from the installer? which begs the question about what do you do if you install it yourself?!

My MV6 didn't increase, my Elite increased by about £6 IIRC.

Both cars DIY installed, both correctly certified and on the UKLPG register.

Basicly it all depends on your insurance company.
Some will try and stick the price up. ( especially if your in the middle of a insurance year )
Some will demand a ticket.
Some will ask if it has been professionally installed ( say yes like me   )

Best to ring them and say you are thinking of fitting it. 
That way, they won't be too tempted to have your pants down because your in the middle of a insurance year

Ive managed to establish that mine isnt on the register, but I cant find out how to put it on there. :-/

You need to get it inspected but if they are anything like round here, you have no chance 
All you get round here is ................. if we didn't fit it, were not interested

I have the installation certificate, so I wouldnt have thought it would need another inspection ? :-/

Ahh, I see 

Who actually runs the register ?

It may be a case of sending them a copy of the ticket 

I know they don't give out certificates anymore.
Apparently, the registered installer registers the installation "online" nowdays iirc

I wanted to get mine checked and listed but no tinker round here will do it 

Is it worth having a word with Teilo (if he answers the phone  )

[albitz]

Dont mind sending the certificate, but no idea where to send it. :-/

But .. if you have a valid certificate that the installer has not registered YOU can apply to have the car registered

Go to this link, enter your registration number .. f it comes up as "unregistered" the pop-up box will tell you what to do ..
