£380 fully comp with Direct Line for me (aged 47) and one other driver. I didn't protect the NCB and it includes commuting but not business use.
Every year I do the rounds of the well known insurance companies and this is the first time Direct Line have come in cheapest for me. It does pay to shop around because I don't think any particular company is consistently cheap. Last year I paid around £320 with a company and they offered me about £580 on the same pararmeters for this year, I hadn't made any claims

That'll be due to theft I expect.The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.

How much extra did each of the Insurers charge you once you declared your modifications (if you have any)

Snowy watch the "offroad cover" with LRIns, new lot don't do it and when I was trying to sort out the policy with old lot (RSA) re remap (i.e. if I had it they didn't want me despite telling them & paying extra for it) I said I wanted to stay with them coz of the offroad cover, I was told they didn't do that any more.
When did they change? We renewed in Sept 10 and apparently was still covered then. The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.

Don't know when they changed, or even if they changed. Just what the person I was dealing with said that but every time you speak to someone different you get another story. If it's important i'd check.
Goo ol' LR Ins, organised as ever .
I'll speak to them in Sept when the renewall is due again and get it clarified and in writing that offroad is covered. We need it more in the winter when picking up on the game shoots so no rush to sort now.The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.

... Clive - is it wise to change? At least NFU paid out when you went swimming! Maybe you're going to avoid swimming in future?
To be honest Stu, I was reluctant to part company with the NFU as I've always had such good service from them and I would still recommend them, but for the sake of over £500 for the years insurance, I can't afford not to.
They cited the "swimming" incident as the reason for this years hike, said something about "high loss ratio" and were not prepared to move at all on the new premium - so now they get nothing still don't understand why they didn't load me up last year though
Believe me - I'm definitely staying out of the (deep) water now Clive
