I use Adrian Flux, they give a members discount as well for Club 80-90. I wrand a few of the companies mentioned in magazines etc, but didn`t get any joy with most of them, some I talked to had no idea, so-called specialist insurers, and most where too expensive. I got a deal with Adrian Flux, modified vehicle (wheels and lowered), agreed value, limited mileage policy, you have to fill in a couple of forms and send some pics. of your `van, but it`s worth the effort, and their people agreed with my valuation :)

I'm with a company called Lynbrook in Bradford 0845 130 4662.They are charging me £191.10 fully comp on my Westy. Although it doesn't cover me to drive to and from work, but then again, I'm currently unemployed!

Thanks for your replys. I have contacted adrian flux and a few other companies but adrian flux have given me by far the best quote. Some companies wanted over £400!!!! adrian flux covered me for £250???? for the same cover sounds a good deal to me :D :D :D
