Really interesting list there! Happy to see that all the IV postcodes are an 'A'. Hopefully that is reflected in insurance prices and I'll try to remember this the next time I am complaining about the mark-up on delivery charges to Highland addresses. Previously:

‘93 Defender 110 200TDi CSW - still got this, non-runner on SORN.
‘87 Defender 90 4 cyl Petrol
‘83 110 CSW V8 - best ever!
Range Rover 2-door V8 (not sure of year - 4-speed box and vacuum diff switch)

I'm guessing LR Insurance is back to fill the void left by those insurance companies who refuse to insure JLR vehicles, due to how easy they are to steal.
Bloke over the road from me, his son bought a brand new FFRR and could not find an insurance company who were willing to insure it in this area (I live by the area highlighted in the Daily Echo article MrTed linked to above).
In the end, he had to use a classic car insurance company to insure it but they insisted he fitted a specific tracker to the car. Tracker was fitted but now drains the FFRR battery. LR dealer can't figure out why it's draining the battery and it's spent more time at the dealers than it has on his drive.

I am in an A band area, but that doesn’t mean my insurance hasn’t increased, it just means it hasn’t gone up as much as others, but proportionally it has.

Sounds about right for JLR
They wouldn’t insure my 64 plate Defender, LV would. ……..and who provides the capacity to insure the cars, LV. I really can’t understand the logic on that one!!!!!

I saw in the headlines that the RR driver who had their insurance cancelled, and had to sell the car at a £15000 loss (allegedly) is back in the news.
He actually gave the car back to the lease company after 4 years, but the funny twist is that the police contacted him 2 days after BCA had collected the car to let him know they had found it after it being stolen.....from the auction yard 2011 D4 XS 305 MY12 - gone but not forgotten
