Pickup insurance

[gerr]

Just had the renewal for my Wildtrack from a broker. It's going up from £550 to £1,050. I contacted NFU, who have all of our other policies and they quoted £1,150. Are other people finding their pickup premiums have doubled?

 

[TripleSix]

Certainly not cheap, had a quote of £2500 for my new pickup.
Now paying just over £900

Rangers are in a high priced bracket for some reason. Well over what they should be for some reason.

These guys were over 50% less to insure my Navara with same FC level cover. NFU were found to be taking the pi$$ and they are losing all our policies now as a result.

Recently renewed my insurance and fairly sure that the 2014 Ranger Limited automatic cost less this year than last and was no more than £400 but with a £100 excess. Fairly sure it was either £350 or £360 with any driver over 30 years of age. Obviously full no-claims discount.

I moved to the local broker, Caleb Roberts, several years ago and have been insuring with NIG through them for the last 3 years. Saving was £800/yr (25%) over the NFU, and they've been ever bit as good with any (small) claims I've made.

I just looked on my last renewal and my L200 is lumped in on the same policy as a tractor, a SP sprayer, telehandler and quad bike. Cover was £1400 for all of those, fully comp.

I have moved between these 2 for past twenty years and can't fault either. Caleb are using Victor for vehicles at the moment.

Same as last year with NFU, 2016 Hilux auto and hovering about the £500 mark

 

[Highland Mule]

Defender 110 TD5. Direct Line £190

 

[carbonfibre farmer]

Current 57plate ranger, 3 named drivers, all over 30, full ncb, also covered for commuting to my other job (important to check small print that it covers this)
Around £400
Looking to change to 14 plate amarok, no change on insurance.

 

[Chasingmytail]

I find vehicles ok with NFU. Everyone was telling me to look around. I have a 10yr old Skodia and time you added breakdown, windscreen and of course low excess no one could beat #550 fully comp. Protect nc. Business and pleasure. Spent hours do this to achieve no advantage.

Its not like for like obv where you live has a major effect.

But NFU on house insurance has come back with a silly quote. Even after spending 30 mins on questions.

I paid 2350 last year for four tractors, combine,13 tonne digger and brand new dmax auto, didnt think that was too bad

 

[chickens and wheat]

Nfu
£650 for a new 2.0 ranger ltd, any driver

Up a bit on the previous 14 year old ranger

 

[Enfoff]

Defender 110 TD5. Direct Line £190

+ for Direct Line - 2011 Rodeo £350 - farm policy wouldn't insure, NFU £800. Thats beacuse 3 claims in two years reduced NCB to 3 years

 

[balerman]

Double cab picks seem expensive to insure to me.L200 18 plate is £600 with NFU yet they insure our 5 tractors and combine for £800 ,value of £120k and a couple smallish claims in the last couple years,seems odd.

 

[masseybreaker]

balerman its not the value of the machines the insurance in insuring its the damage they can do . bigger risk from whiplash claims etc with a car

 

[hally]

Sometimes these direct line type companies won’t do business insurance only private, that’s why they are cheaper, something to watch for.
