losing weight out of the car is the BEST way to increase its performance..

Its improves braking, cornering, reliability, accelleration, economy..

Only downside(s) is internal noise and possibly safety

that is true in most cases, but if you take too much out of the back of the car then the back end will come off the ground easier and will need a spoiler

got a spoiler lol

Do you have to tell the insurance about things like that? It's not really a modification I guess and wouldn't it be safer if anything? increase the crumple zone and wont send two great big bits of metal into your back? Just a thought ...actually just realised, probably wont do much for side impact protection but if there's nobody in the back?

Tell your insurance company as it is technically a mod, some companies get a bit funny about things like this and will decide to not pay if you have an accident.

When they ask why say you need the loadspace cos sometimes you carry a bike in the back. Otherwise they will think you are lightening for performance.
