Old age Land Rover Insurance.

Hi all, I’m not impressed with my Insurance Co, I’ve now reached the age of 80 and my insurance has gone up from £360 to over £900 pounds. No claims have been made, drove 1500 miles last year and will do about the same this year. My Landy is 1993 standard Defender cab in very good condition. Time Insurance company’s were brought to task over this type type of day light robbery! By the way I’ve never made a claim in my life.

Just insured my 1994 ex-MoD 110 Defender - I'm 77. Managed to get a classic car cover but means doesn't accrue protected NCD. Also has limited mileage of 5000/yr which suits me fine. Came in at £465 + legal cover and recovery - pushing it to £511. Best I could find. Contacted a number of insurers advertising in LRM. Got various quotes from 'not interested' to £1700. One of the insurers told me that it was too young for a classic car cover.
My 2001 '90' is on a SORN for a big refurb (new galv chassis etc) so initially looked at transferring insurance onto the 110. Insurance went from a quote of £570 for the '90' to £3170 for the 110. At first they even said that the 110 didn't exist - then said if it had a van body (which it has) - it couldn't be older than 2006 build. Then I pointed out they were already insuring my 90 with a van body and that is a 2001 reg. So I went elsewhere.
