Best Price for Insurance ?
« on: December 02, 2007, 13:15:40 »
Hi,

For some reason, my insurance has gone up by a ridiculous amount - they just decided they wanted to i think.

They want £327 and that includes £150 excess, protected no claims discount and thats about it... (Liverpool Victoria for my 91 110 200TDI).

I used to pay £220 - which i thing is more like it.

So, where do you get yours from and how much ?

Are there any land rover friendly insurers around ?

Thanks dudes

Im with Sureterm..

Really good people to talk to, and they seem to know their stuff about landrovers.

Im 25, with no no claims and its was 400 ish. This is for a 90 with a a few mods... Cage, Diffs, Seats, Suspension, Intercooler, Wheels, Turbo.

I will shop around next time its due, but to be honest most insurance companies get really confused when you say you have lifted the vehicle... Far to used to rude boys making the chassis 1 inch from the floor!

I'm with Lancaster which is £156 fully comp for me (46) and the wife (41), I don't have a lift but I have declared all my other mods. This is limited to 5000 miles a year which isn't a problem as I only use it at weekends.

NFU Mutual
£206 upon renewal for the 110, Comprehensive cover & maximum NCB, It was £226 last year upon starting with them*

I don't suppose it's bad considering that there could be a possible 10 passengers claiming against them, if I was found liable for any incident that required a claim being made.

Adrian Flux wanted about £350 to continue the policy that I transferred from the (previous) Discovery :shock:


* I always deal with the Honley office (Huddersfield), as I can drive across & discuss it with them.
Very knowledgeable as well, a friend once enquired about insuring his old 101FC with them.
As he started to explain, the girl asked if it was a GS or an Ambulance derivative :shock:

I've used Firebond for the last few years.

The V8 was £133 last year on agreed value fully comp with a limit of 6000 miles. It wasn't a great deal more for higher mileage.

The 90 is £128 on the same terms.

Thanks guys,

I phoned around a bit - H even tried confused . com - the cheapest was about £176.

Anyway, soon as you tell them about the alloy wheels they go balistic.

NFU have given me a price of £236 - i may well go there (after i have tried firebond)...

Steve,
Your "agreed valuation" with Firebond isn't worth the paper it's written on.  My claim for theft not recovered is still ongoing.  I had what I thought was agreed valuation of 7.5k and the first offer on Firebonds advice was 2.5k, cannot say too much as legal action is immenent against them.  Theft occured 11 August still not stettled to date.
DONT TOUCH FIREBOND.
NFU WONT COVER YOU ON 4x4 RESPONSE DUTIES.

Be careful guys and ensure you declare everything even towbars and roofracks.

Regards

Tony

By the way I'm now with Lancaster,  Happy days

NFU

costs us nearly £2k a year but thats for the 4 in my signature insured for me and my parents.
i'm 19 and dad has points on his license.
they were the only people who didnt start laughing when we said 19yr old, 4.6 range rover....
they're equally not fussy about mods, just let em know. doesn't seem to affect the premium (even when i added cage, winch, lift etc etc)

oh and you get real people on the phone (and they're friendly too)  :D

I'm with Adrian Flux at the moment but I'm leaving after the crappy way they handled my sister's claim last year (it's still not been payed) and they wriggled out of the agreed value part of the insurance.  Total crap IMHO, I'm moving to Lancaster, she already has and they were cheaper.

We paid £92 fully comp for our 110 V8 through Flux, and that is with 0 NCD as we have both of our NCDs on the two other Land Rovers we have (110 Tdi and Disco V8).
