I done a quote for mods the other day, suspension,braided lines,wheels tyres,roof rack,lights ect ect
quoted m 2000 quid then I done a quote with no mods came back at 250 with windscreen cover, legal aid
including, breakdown the works tis a fkn joke. Time to look else where it would be good to know who's using
what insurance company & prices for mods.

Performance direct 9 points, disco 200tdi engine swap from 2.5td, change from commercial to County, forward facing rear seats. £300 fully comp, windscreen, breakdown, legal. No car alarm or immobiliser.
The engine swaps don't matter as much as its still a 2.5, interesting you have 9 points though.
Its all the add on gear they seam to not like it must make them more desirable to the sticky fingered types.

I'm with NFU, I declared side rear windows fitted and 4 x inward facing seats, was told as they aren't performance enhancements there will be no effect on the premium.

Engine swaps do matter, because of the power increase. I had to send proof of the engine change and everything.The engine swaps don't matter as much as its still a 2.5, interesting you have 9 points though.

Bling puts up your insurance because the vehicle is more likely to be nicked. It also decreases the resale value. Factory spec is best.
My last early defender was converted & from a 2.5na to a 300tdi & my insurance didn't bother
said as it was the same 2.5 capacity & no extra fee either.

Yeah but that doesn't mean they don't need to be told...

You technically should inform them of anything that is not factory fitted, whether you fitted them or not.

But if you have a crash, they will look for any reason to not pay out.
