He's talking about the fact that you have already posted enough evidence in Youtube to incriminate yourself if a Police officer could be bothered to do some simple detective work. It really wouldn't be too hard to find out where you live and your car details.
There are so few Police on patrol nowadays that the fear of being caught randomly has disappeared and people like you can break the law with impunity in the almost certain knowledge that they won't get caught. However sooner or later something will happen and the technology will catch you; the Police have plenty of time to assemble all the evidence they need after an accident and they will prosecute. When that does happen those boasting videos are not going to do your defence any favours at all and If, God forbid, you kill or maim somebody you are almost certainly facing a prison sentence.

If you want to hoon around in your car and also learn how it handles at speed, then hop on over to this site here: http://www.oultonpark.co.uk/ and book yourself onto a track day.

Oddly, or no so if you think about it a little, fully comp normally is cheaper the TPF&T.
Adding an experienced driver you your insurance reduces the premium a lot, more often if they're a named driver on another policy rather than a policy holder. Some insurance companies/brokers don't make that distinction though.

You should have persevered with your Sei by doing the work your self! It's a great car to learn basic motor mechanics on & you don't need any specialists tools for the clutch & engine mount. It would have given you a good grounding in understand exactly what can go wrong with a car.
Should have fixed it. Nothing to lose at all if it went wrong and that was not so hard to do, hard work yes but doable.

Well kind of... so say you replace your discs & pads you'll end up getting a good view of the suspension, CV joint & steering. Might make you a little more compassionate towards the car & thus other road users.

The car want fixable. It would have cost a lot of money to put right too.

If it was just a broken engine mount & clutch? 30min to 1 hours work with about £45 of parts...

And the main thing that sounds like it can't be fixed is the peanut of a twat driving it
