Who's the best company for t4 insurance? I just had a quote for nearly 900 quid telling them about the few mods like decat,air filter,and remap.

Seems like it's pot luck, not sure what most the of pp people do re insurance.

Think it's just a case of phoning around, for hours! Oh and my advice you be steer clear of the comparison sites!

 

[Jet Black T4 2.5 TDI]

I have had two reasonable quotes regarding insuring my T4 if I were to Modify it.


I have 7 years protected No Claims bonus and am 47 years old.


Currently paying £567 ( 9 seater with no Mods, fully comp with me as the only driver ).



Vehicle:-

2003 T4 Caravelle 2.5 TDI LWB 88Bhp AJT engine with six seats ( 3 removed and stored ).
valued at around £8000.





Proposed Mods:-



17" Alloy Wheels with 225/50/17 load rated tyres.
Remove the Catalytic convertor.
Blank off the EGR valve.
Remap up to @ 120 BHP.
Fit an 'A' Bar.


The first quote was for £740.Second quote was for £630 but I would probably need to register and modify the T4 as a Camper.


Looking to save money myself so any advice is appreciated.


Thanks

i'm with herts insurance consultants, costing me £510 fully comp as a full on self build camper conversion (haven't finished doing the work yet but it would've been cheaper as a standard van)

standard 2.5 tdi ajt

mileage of 14,000 per year

i'm 35 with full no claims, bird is 28 but only been driving 4 years

i think location has a lot to do with it
i used to live near leighton buzzard and when we moved to north devon my golf's policy price dropped by half

LV didn't want to know my T4 Caravelle. Think the 9 seats put them off.

Try Sureterm and Brentcare I paid 240ish fully comp 2.4d with it being lowered. Ring round dude, I'm guessing it will be higher this yr !!

 

[JIMMYJAMES]

Su$$term Make sure you check your paperwork if you do go with them and that they have added all the modifications!
