I have just received the following load of bullshit from LV out of the blue. Clearly generated from a computerised list of car models (I think "SWB Sdv8 339 Auto" is a little TOO specific to have involved a human!), this is obviously a cost and risk cutting exercise. Anyone else had the same?

Or has anyone noticed the huge increase in Range Rover Vogue SE SWB 339BHP Auto cars being stolen in the past 5 years? Or seen the clearly extensive press coverage that I must have been comatose for?

re-run your quote through confused or meerkat, see if LV offer you a policy  .

Yep, tried that - "Sorry, we don't insure this type of car."

Well, go f*@k yourselves then! - Admiral do!

(Plus Admiral have forgotten about my little bump last year, which doubled my renewal quote with them!)

I'd be very surprised if they've 'forgotten'

They may just be waiting for you to tell them... otherwise I'm sure they'd gladly invalidate your policy at some point in the future if they decide it's necessary.

Insurance companies aren't known for being 'forgetful' of things that they can charge extra for in my experience....

your 'bump' will be on the MID [motor insurance database] so you will get caught eventually... ... - .- -.

Sorry -I slightly misled you all - I have declared the accident on my renewal quotes with LV and Admiral. When I asked for a renewal from Admiral last year, just after the accident, they doubled my renewal cost to over £2000 for a 3 car policy, and LV gave me a quote of about the same as my previous premium. Now a year has passed and Admiral are quoting me at a level which negates any increase from the bump. However, I have also accrued another year's NCD which also reduces the cost.

Fair enough

Admiral are pretty good, I've got the FFRR, my VW California and the Golf R insured with them on one policy... saved a fortune!

Oh b??ger.

My renewal is up soon, LV were £350 cheaper than DL with my D4.

I’m with LV and my renewal is due soon, will be interesting to see what they say.

Funnily enough I received an alert from Experian today saying that LV had searched my credit file regarding an insurance quote?

My BMW was insured with LV, but they were very expensive when I bought the RR back in May, so I cancelled. They were very good/prompt with the refund and proof of NCD. MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

The only thing I got from LV was grief. I unfortunately wrote off my D2 a few years ago and although there were several parts I wanted from it they sold it for scrap before I'd even had time to ask for a buy-back value.

After three months of arguments I finally got close to a reasonable settlement from them and vowed never to use them for ANY insurance again.

Dunc. The life you have is the only one you'll get; make the most of it.

I think I have posted this before, when I contacted LV recently they wouldn't insure my RR. Geoff

I had the fatty with LV last year. They did offer me a renewal quote when it was due in early September, but at a big rise on last year. A few mins on the comparison sites had a renewal at a lower cost than last year so went with that (RAC I think). My experience is that many (all?) of the companies change their offering on a very regular basis and the only way to know if they are staying competitive is to do the tedious tout around each year. The whole market goes up and down, but the individual firm changes can be completely ridiculous. This year, of the four cars, two I renewed for lower premiums with the same companies that were already insuring them, and the other two I had to change, but again for a lower premium than last year. This came to the grand total of £785.73 for all four which was about £100 less than my 2019 renewal round. Mike - MPx

Did you get some complementary Faraday pouches earlier this year from LV?

No, not even a Christmas card
