NFU & Remapped ECU's

Keep hearing good things about NFU insurance, off-road cover etc. Does anyone know if NFU have any issues with a re-mapped D3. Will they issue cover, does it cost any extra Question
Thanks.

The answer was no when I asked them, they don't cover modified vehicles apparently

Would standard LR Nudge Bar and Driving Lamps count as 'modified' do you think?

Standard fit LR accessories are usually fine ..but as you posted a few moments ago ...tell your insurer and ask them to note it on the system Wink

I sent a list of mods of my Defender (before I bought it) to NFU - included winch, chipped TD5, roll-cage etc and they were OK with it, they did refer it to their engineers.

I've found NFU very flexible and straight forward to deal with, especially when I had one of my previous Defenders stolen. Paid stratight away, said I'd never see it again - they were right, I haven't.

Very good value IMHO.

cheers

Oh well, doesn't sound promising, but I guess I'll have to ask my local branch, just in case. Thanks all.

I would suggest that you state that you have had the car remapped as a fuel economy aid. Quote the torque improvement rather than the bhp and you should get a more favourable response. Wink

When I spoke to my local NFU office they said they would not insure my remapped D3 unless I was an existing customer. When I moved house I switched my home insurance to them and will talk to them again about car insurance at renewal time.

Not a bad way to drum up business!
