Puffernutter Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Which insurers have you tried? Cheers Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsu0san Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 http://www.2getherinsurance.com/ I use them, have done for a couple of years now. £130 fully comp with all the mods I have (lifted, guards, snorkel, winch etc etc). Only problem is that they will not increase your no claims, but they will keep it alive just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Smith Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Have you tried the NFU? They weren't fussed by any of the mods on my 110, and were the cheapest by a big margin. The only thing they had to ask the underwriter about was the big intercooler, but even that came back as no problem. But the main reason I use them is they are the only company that will cover an 11 seater that I have found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonr Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 http://www.2getherinsurance.com/ I tried these - their on line quotation crashes half way through. Phoned up and they said they could not insure my 110 because I travelled more than 5000 miles pa. Also, it is too valuable (10k). On an ordinary policy, they would not allow ANY modifications - so they could not offer Insurance! Last year my Insurance cost £210. This year £668 and the quote for next year - a staggering £2400 and all that has changed in the last two years is more no claims! I got a quote, hypothetically, for a supercharged V8 RRS from the same company and it was £580. I could buy a (used) RRS and pay for it over 5 years on just the Insurance saving! (that's an example of 'Man Maths'!) Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverik Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I've got the Camel Disco and my standard Disco with the NFU, not the cheapest, but i found them the most accomodating for both vehicles, didn;t bat an eyelid at all the Mods on the Camel. get good discounts for having no cliams and age is a big factor as usual, evedently my policies will come down next January... as I become Three Zero...

mudmagnet Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 i have always found flux to be good when you start mentioning mods my disco has snorkel, winch, lift, rocksliders and other mods but its still only around £300 including recovery and thats unlimited miles including commuting but i am over 50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverik Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 My 90 is through Adrian Flux, and all her mods are listed, but its on a classic, with limited millage. - I think I'll be pulling it across to NFU to take advantage of multicar discount and ease of handeling. I found flux just another voice at the end of the phone reading out what they saw on the screen in front of them... i did get them to quote for my Standard Disco but it came in at 800+ and they didn;t seem perticulalry interested in my business.

mahon257 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I've been with SureTerm last 3 years. Got my 1996 Tdi on Agreed Value Insurance (£15k). I pay about £400 fully comp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadget Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Adrian Flux are fine when they're taking the money and giving you a certificate. It's when there's a claim that things go awry. You get handed off to a claims handling company. You aren't kept informed with progress by Flux or their claims handlers, and no matter how many times you update Flux and their associates with your new address they continue to send all mail to the previous one. Never again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
