Big Mat Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 How old is it and what litre? That sounds ridiculously cheap and is that third party? its a 1980 series 3 long wheel base with a 2.25 engine in it. Third party fire and theft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triumphant59 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 4x4 for a 17 year old is going to be expensive to insure. My 17 year old (VW Polo 1.0) is insured by CLAIS (CLA Ins Services). They are extremely competitive you just need to be be a CLA member.

HDAV Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 My Cousin is insured on a 110 defender G reg wasn't too bad on the 2.5 turbo lump until it blew up and they fitted a 200tdi insurance classed it as a mod and policy rocketed! Best bet is buy an old fergie tractor at 15 insure it on the road at 16 and then take the NCB (its been sat in field) over to your first car.

ferguson_tom Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 your biggest mistake was getting the commercial, a astra van was 1800 quid for me to insure wheras the astra would have been 700. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I dont like freelanders happychappy246 freelander is a comercial ie; a working version of the freelander.
