Insurance range rover 2.5 diesel from 2001. I have inherited the range rover from my father, but the insurance premium is outrageous, cheapest £3,500c

Any ideas to get a fair deal ?
I live in Tottenham London.

Thanks for any reoply

Try Direct Line.

Is age a factor?
Unfortunately Range Rover products are expensive to insure, more so in London.

Try NFU

Move to Wales and reach the ripe of age of 68 -- £128

Is that per month or per year?

I use Churchill £164 a year but am an OAP and live in South Yorks

If you're young, 35 or under, try putting Mum on as a second driver, that sometimes helps, (if she has a license of course)

I would be worried about the ulez charge as well as the insurance.

Aha, so now you know. Owning/running the car is the expensive bit, aquisition is the low cost easy part of the deal.

Definitely talk to the insurance company and make sure they understand it's NOT keyless entry !! Most of them are loading all RR models based on the newer model "keyless theft" issues.

Age, Job, License Duration, Names Drivers, Parked on road etc all make a difference. Also don't over value the car - use industry standard values, and remove modifications like springs or power boost boxes.

Also try multiple comparison sites, they do vary a lot.

****.

Saga if you're over 50. Other use something like Moneysupermarket to check.

If your RR is (or could be) classed as a classic specialist insurers will often offer a good deal, based on limited annual mileage & even offer an agreed value .. however this type of insurance is not usually available for a daily driver as you need to have the use of another car for that purpose & in London they would probably insist on it being garaged overnight.

When I tried getting classic insurance it had to be garaged, if it was on the drive they would only insure up to £2500.

I've had the same problem in the past & we are in rural Essex

Currently the RRC is with Lancaster for £137 inc. agreed value & it's parked on the drive. I'm apprehensive about the renewal premium due in August as my advanced age is also a factor.

That's cheap, even double that I would be happy.

Agreed, though this year's renewal will be the last before I become an octogenarian
