4x4 Insurance specialists - alternative to Frank Pickles?

[PTE993]

Hi we insured our modified Jeep Wrangler with Frank Pickles a year ago for just over £200. Come renewal time they've told us the company underwriting that policy is no longer offering this type of cover and the best quote they can offer is nearly £500!! It's a 3rd car and we do less than 3000 miles pa.

Have pinged a few companies today (inc Adrian Flux) for quotes which I'll get back later in the week. With Gocompare I can get £484 but I wasn't able to fully list all the mods.

Would appreciate any recommendations for any other specialist 4x4 insurance companies that I can try to get a better premium with.

Thanks in advance!

I'd have jumped at £500!

AF are quoting me £2500 before modifications

Haven't tried the NFU yet but just emailed Glynwood

[jay140285]

Glynwood will insure with all modifications,

Frank Pickles will only insure if its heavily modified.

Update. NFU was over £1000!!! AF (inc PH discount) was £600. But Glynwood have come in at £290 Thanks Jay good recommendation.

Try '2gether' insurance. Small broker that someone recommended me. Excellent service and 172 quid on my defender this year

Update. Got a quote now from 2Gether. £274. A shade under Glynwood. Decided to go with 2Gether in the end. Happy with all the mods. On 3000 miles pa. Turns out they use the same underwriter - Highway - that Frank Pickles used to use. Thanks everyone for your help. Saved me over £200!!

Result, my one through Glynwood is with highway.
