Does anyone know of an insurance company who is Suzuki friendly? The cheapest quote I could get from the usual suspects was from the AA. I pay £620 fully comp on my V6 and that is as standard with no mods. I'm in Birmingham, I'm 35, I have 12 years no claims and I've had a full liscence for 17 years. I reckon that's too much. I only pay £420 fully comp on my 3.2 XJ6 Jag!

is it a soft top? that tends to push it up due to the ease in which access can be obtained

i was with greenlight and they were cheap but when it came to renew they told me they no longer cover 4x4s!! i then found adrian flux, who i am now insured with on my modded sj410 fully comp for only £150 a year (limited milage as its my 2nd car for mainly off road use). I thought it was a bargain. They do require pics though, and i still aint got round to taking them yet lol, they will get [!Expletive Deleted!] at me soon i think!! great price though.

Thats good, I'm looking at an sj as a second car for a bit of fun, very reasonable, whats the milage restriction?

For a non-modified vehicle, it's well worth sticking your details into www.confused.com

Our Series 3 costs us the massive total of 85 quid a year to insure through them.

Unfortunately, it's the painful advert that puts me off them! Not the effect their advertising team were aiming for, I'm sure  :lol: I see their latest ones don't have the guy shouting at you like your deaf any more.

On topic though, I have both mine through Firebond. £150 for the LR and £115 for the Zuke if I remember correctly. But I am an old git (Sarah's words!) which has it's advantages  :lol:

I was with Firebond (very cheap :) ) unitl I discovered that they don't give you any no claims bonus.  I guess there had to be a reason for being cheap :)

boggert, i opted for a 1500 mile limit but you could choose more if you want. i only did 600 miles last year! and you can always disconnect your speedo for a bit if you were getting close to the limit, its only one screw, lol.

Firebond cover modifications, but not suspension lifts.

Roadsure cover all modifications, £105 TPFT for my SJ on a limited mileage 2nd car policy.

Did you tell them clearly that it was a "lift". I had a long conversation with them and they cover suspension modifications if it has been lowered. If you told them the suspension was modified by 3" perhaps they misunderstood.

It was clearly explained to them, in writing, that it was a "lift", with D-Flex, extended shocks, 31's, 32mm spacers, 410 T-Box, winch, arches cut out and extended and how it all worked etc.  I didn't have a body lift (it didn't need it) so maybe that went in my favour?  Who knows :)
