LR Insurance and remaps

I have read a few posts where members had sought cover from Land Rover Insurance for remapping and had been turned down. I can confirm this morning that I have obtained full comprehensive cover for the re-map with a 15% loading with them, with no additional penalties to the policy. Very Happy

Have you had your car remapped then DG? Wink

How did you explain it to them? Has anyone managed to get NFU to do it?

Don't you think 15% is a 'money-for-old-rope' additional penalty? Evil or Very Mad Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Well I asked if they covered remapping ...they asked about performance...I told them the relative increase in BHP and torque...and they went away thought about it, then called me with the % increase. The important point to them was that the top speed of the vehicle i.e. 112mph was not being increased. They require a letter from me for the file ...and that's that Thumbs Up

Of course I do Sad ...but I guess they would argue their increased risk ...ultimately I'm happy to pay for the peace of mind and it means I dont have to faff about changing companies.

Like most insurance companies, they all will cover upgrades, but it depends heavily on your location, not really the car.

If you already pay a higher premium because you live in a dodgy area (note: not dogging area!!), then it is possible that you will not get the upgraded cover.
I went through all this pash when I had my Evo's. When I moved house upgrades and add-ons were not a problem, although at a price.

Do you get a reduction on your premium if you use wipe down seat covers and have the privacy glass removed?? Rolling with laughter
