Hi Folks,

I am new to this and looking at a Range Rover Westminster 4.4TDV8.
I looked at quotes and OMG how expensive for such an old vehicle.
Cheapest I have seen on comparison is £1700 - Still very very high for this.

I am 42, 10yrs NCB, various driving qualifications etc due to Ambulance background.

My question to you is does anyone else have any good insurance companies?

Thanks

That does seem high. I know we are all different and live in different places etc, but mine is £355, I’m 54, full NCB.

I just use go compare generally.

Can’t remember who I’m with….

 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

Previous cars :
2003 Range Rover Vogue TD6
1999 Discovery Td5 ES
1995 BMW M5 3.8 6 speed
1992 Range Rover 3.9 Efi Vogue
1992 BMW M5 3.8
1988 BMW 735i SE
1989 Ford Sierra XR4x4 2.9i
1981 Ford Fiesta Supersport

It is a joke - I think its discrimination against older cars. I mean its 2012 with very basic kit on it, and older technology.
Insurance companies surely should look deep into this

Is it cheaper if you don’t state your driving qualifications? My Uncle was a Police Advanced Driving instructor for like 40 years and never got cheaper insurance.

I added my girlfriend on as a named driver, that brought it down further.

Just looked, went with RAC in the end as had windscreen cover…

Yeah I just tried that, but unfortunately made no difference

I also found Hastings to be very competitive not sure how many versions there are but mine was Hastings Direct which had more than my previous Aviva as standard on the policy . 2025 SV P615
2021 SVautobiography Dynamic Black ( gone )
1997 C140 Mercedes Benz CL500

I tried hastings, says cant quote

Unfortunately RRs are a toxic brand to insurers just now. You might try Wrisk Transfer which is on the LR UK website as 'Land Rover Insurance'. My existing insurers NFU Mutual refuse to quote for an L460 but I can get a quote (albeit not especially attractive price) from WT, I tried both with a couple of Defenders for comparison purposes and WT came in notably cheaper and better terms re compulsory excesses etc. than NFUM which had until recently been OK. Only Range Rovers since 1988

Well had quote now £3700 wtf ......

Mine is a late 322 but came up with some insurers as a 405 - more affordable quotes once that was rectified.

Hi, yeah tried that but still stupid quotes unfortunately

Unfortunately Birmingham like London is notoriously high for insuring Range Rovers (although more so for the newer versions)
have you tried all the comparison sites ?
It works out cheaper if you have other cars you have access to drive and also go with a reasonable mileage rather than say 10,000 if you in reality only do 6,000 2011 L322 Autobography - a lot of bells and some of the whistles...owner with no idea!

Yeah done that too... just so unfortunate. Despite having, GPS, dash cam, disc lock, wheel lock.
