Just been emailed my yearly quote from Flux. £504 which includes £56 breakdown and £35 Excess protection (£300). I can imagine the 25mm wheel spacers may bump it a bit but nevertheless a little steep don't you think for a 2006 vehicle doing 4000 miles a year and 11 years no claim bonus.

Yes I would say it's a bit steep too. However modified vehicles are always more costly to insure than standard variants.
I just got a quote for £325 for my TD4 SE, with 18" rims, spot lights, tow bar, sports exhaust, Ron box and aftermarket sunroof all added as modifications. That was for 8K miles PA with over 10 year NCB, but excluded the rather crash happy wife.

My v6 would have been about £500 - £550 with flux when looking back at what I paid previously. My mileage int much different you yours. Garaged with more ncd than you. Insurance is very random. Mine always seems to higher than average even though I shop around.

My quote was through a well known comparison site. I got about a dozen under £400 with the mods addad. Unfortunately I can't take up the cheap cover as the wife has had 4 claims in a 5 year period.
The area you does make a huge difference to premiums.

The Defender and Freelander were costing about £1000 a year to insure for the wife and me (NFU), until I swapped to Direct Line, when they went down to just under £500. Weird.
