Em Dott Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Can anyone tell me what is needed to pick up a car from a car impound lot?My friend said all he needs is ownership, insurance and a valid license.However, he has a provisional license and is putting insurance on the car today.Also, can anyone give me the location of Perivale Impound Lot?

Em Dott Posted March 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Car ain't mine dargy.It's his whip.He was asking if I would be able to drive it back for him. Not even sure if I would be allowed. I'm sure I was told you need to have fully comp insurance in order to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskay Jones Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 If you dont own the car you need to have fully comp insurance with the ability to drive any other third party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Gayle Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hate that place mine got taken there last year.The queue is long and they don't ramp, make sure you have everything. Also the daily charge is from 12pm. So make sure you have enough. If you don't have the logbook do the v50 scam.I got a lift I know it's off the a406 ask tommy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Em Dott Posted March 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 If you dont own the car you need to have fully comp insurance with the ability to drive any other third party.Hmmm.This is what I was thinking.Do you reckon one day temp cover is enough since that is fully comp?

Gage Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 You need the v5 log book, valid licence and insurance (they wont accept them one day insurance) nor will they accept a 'mechanic' or someone in the trade who has traders insurancethe compound if coming westbound on the a40, get off at perivale (just after the new speed camera) and before the tesco near the hoover buildinghttp://maps.google.co.uk/maps?near=A40,+De...8135901845,,0,5then stay in the left lane, follow the signs to perivale/police car poundMake sure you bring the above 3 as they wont pet to hold your car in for another daymy mate kept going back there 3 times cause he didnt have the right paper work/insurance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 This place is f*ckEDThe interest is f*ckED something like £200 standard rate + £50 every day its inside.When i went I ended up payin something in excess of £600. I swear down i've seen shorter queue's at a RAVE. There were dudes that had to come back 3 times from SCOTLAND to get their whip. I was stopped cos I allegedly had no insurance. I came with the insurance certificate... They wanted everthing but I had left my wallet in the car when they pulled me (including my licence & bank card to pay the charge with). They asked me to replace my insurance certificate to prove it hadn't been cancelled. I Had to come back 4 times and each time I had to queue for at least 3 hours. Each time I came back I saw the same faces, still tryna get their whips back. QUEUEING OUTSIDE BTW & This was December times. Then when the next time I came they said they had done an MOT test on the car while it was impounded and it failed on a worn tyre. This was the last day before it got crushed. So the only way I could get it out was to pay for it to be towed to a MOT Test centre. Bank balance was hurt that month. THEY TAKE THE PISS OUT OF YOUR LIFE, BELEIVE.

THEY TAKE THE PISS OUT OF YOUR LIFE, BELEIVE.It's 12pound storage fee every day they hold your car + the original fine of 250 quid for having no insurance. that is for 14 days until they auction ur car or crush it.
