Insurance

Does anybody know of a company that is good for insuring land rovers? I am 18 and am finding very hard to find cheep insurance for my defender. Most however wont insure becuase it's a 2.5.
Had many argument with companies that yes it has a 2.5 but is slower than a 1.2 corsa! and increased visibility is safer, not sporty etc so less likely to crash but still say no!

Thanks!

Have you tried NFU? They will understand the difference between a Landy and a Corsa

Try www.confused.com and www.masterquote.co.uk

I saved a fortune with Matserquote on our house insurance.

just tried moneysupermarket.com and got a quote of £700 from bell! quite good considering most companies say no! dad refused over £2000 for insurance on disco though Sad Sad

Will try NFU though - i hear they are really cheap. do you have to have a farming connection though?

They were £100 cheaper than any other I could get and just seemed on the ball really. Have changed the Merc to them whilst I await the black beast!

I was surprised when they beat my wifes More than quote on her Freelander with better cover, I've also moved my home insurance to them.

Home insurance is due in May, so will more than likely move to them then. They couldn't beat Direct Line for SWMBO's Scenic though, £125 more...... Confused

Just got NFU'd today prior to sinking in salisbury on saturday. How good are they then Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Thumbs Up
At £575 they were £100 dearer than our last insurer and £200 dearer than the quotes we got for this year. But I think it is more than worth it for the peace of mind off road. Landrover were £750 Shocked
