I had a lot of trouble getting a policy on my own zed, and by your standards, it's a stock car (dual exhaust, decay, air filter). In France, any modification that changes the specification on the registration doc (e.g. Power output) means the vehicle must be inspected and documents updated. Even custom exhausts are illegal unless specifically approved by the manufacturer. It effectively means that the market for mods over there is limited to wheels and audio. Just saying that UK seems to be very much an exception to the rest of Europe in terms of modified cars

Exactly the same law in Spain , agree that people modify the body however that's also illegal unless approved. When I took my ZS for MOT the guy actually doubted that the factory body kit was standard and called over 3 guys to check plus a search on Google haha
