My insurance is up for renewal shortly, so I have been shopping around. I can find only three sources for insurance that includes off-road use - LR Insurance, NFU and Adrian Flux.
The prices vary greatly. Are there any others I should try?
The prices below are for myself/spouse with business use, 20k miles:
LR Insurance £654
NFU - £582
Adrian Flux - £492
All include new (based on £43,500) for old for first year. NFU includes this for two years.
Interestingly, Adrian Flux is based on a Highway policy but does include off-road use. I've had prices from online screen scrapers (Confused.com and Masterquote.co.uk) for Highway policies at £400, but without off-road cover.Matt
The whole off-road cover thing is a bit misleading sometimes, check the cover carefully as it may just extend to green lanes wheich you should be covered for anyway as they're public roads
If there's any insurers out there reading this, if you come up with a decent off-road policy at a reasonable price you're sure to get a few new customers The End

I'm with LR insurance...does anyone get any more than this with the other players??

It's pretty much the same as the others, with except from the NFU that give you full invoice value for two years.
The only difference is the repair centre. Many of the others may not use the LR dealer. However, they will be using genuine parts, cos you can only get these.Matt

it's worth remembering that you should be able to insist that your insurance repairs are done at a centre of your choice, even if the ins company aren't too keen because they normally have their own list of agents,
I have LR insurance and their claims department are useless. It took 8 months to get payment from a 3rd party which admitted liability - they even upped my premium because they hadn't reclaimed the money even though the othe insurance company admitted full liability. LR insurance call centres are diverted to India (I Think) and I hate speaking on phones with time lag and bad reception.Loving the power of the TDV8!
Only problem with NFU is they won't cover modified vehicles, which is an issue for some of us The End
