olympus51342 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 LOOKING FOR INSURANCE FOR A MODIFIED DEFENDER I have a reasonably modified defender and wish to get some insurance on it. I will be using it for green laning and a little road use. can anyone reccomend who to talk to. The vehicle is an old F reg Defender 90 with the following mods, looks bit of an old dog but does what it says on the tin... Full external roll cage Challenge wings 35" wheels 3 winches ARB lockers Ashcroft shafts Discovery rear axle Ashcroft transfer box Ashcroft diffs etc etc Please advise.

Mark Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Thing 1: Welcome to the forum. Thing 2: No Need to shout - it is far easier to read mixed case than all upper case. Thing 3: Give Barry a ring at Frank Pickles Insurance - they offer a specialist modified Land Rover scheme that is very good. hth Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsu0san Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 2Gether Insurance. Cheaper than Frank Pickles and if you catch them late on a Friday evening, they might even discount it even more (they did for me anyway). K Reg 200Tdi 90, £125 fully comp with no no-claims. All mods covered with greenlaning and offroading included. Couldn't argue really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GBMUD Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 OT, but it looks a little over equipped for a green laner? There seem to be a lot of highly modified specified green lane trucks of late. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroanaconda Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 The OP might mean it in the sense that that is the only use of any concern to the insurance company, use on the public highway. Off-road on private land is none of their business, after all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoaryV8 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Lancaster for me. RRC was £270 fully comp with limited miles, Just changed to a 300 Disco and dropped a further £68 so im well chuffed with them considering i have No NCB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJB Serenity Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Lancaster for me too. Didn't whack up my premium this year like many seem to be doing. Cover off-road and greenlaning too. Welcome to the forum too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyoldgit Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Even the forum search facility is not the best around try typing 'insurance' into it and you will find that insurance is one of the most popular subjects on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saxosportsaxo Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 i have a road legal challenge 90, i went for a quote with the NFU with all the mods highlighted they were quite expensive. So i tried Adrian Flux and 3 party F and T was only £300 with limited millage (just said under average miles per year) i thought it was pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
