The sending of an email either via the website or other does not confirm a booking
and in no way obligates us contractually or other until we recieve full and final payment and confirm a booking.
Any changes to the booking must be notified as soon as possible,
as it is possible that your booking will be cancelled at point of pickup should it then interfere with other bookings. Trips that are changed once the pickup has been made may be cancelled at any point as you will then have broken your end of the contracted journey.

The value/definition of high value can not be answered here as this is subject to change by the insurance companies at any time.
Late/Delayed vehicles
