Can't help thinking this sort of story (Son writes off his dad's £275,000 supercar) is the reason for this sort (Young drivers quoted up to £27,000 for car insurance).

Amanda (Wednesday letters) how was it phrased? "Fwoor, nice bicycle darlin"?
Or was it phrased "good heavens, what a delightful velocipede, it is only surpassed in beauty by your good self"?
(I'm not sure which is worse.)
