The Jimny has been modified (relatively minorly at present, but will be more so as time goes on). Current;y it only 2" suspension lift, bigger tyres, recovery points, and plywood load bay in back instead of seats. It's also used as a work vehicle, so it won't be pay-and-play or standard recreational/commuter insurance I'm looking for.
All quotes I've had are pretty high, so maybe someone here has better experience of this than me

A tip is add on your mother/sister. having a female named driver on mine made it about £30 cheaper for some reason (even with them at a different address).

Thinking about it, another that might be an option might be National Farmers Union, as there must be a lot of modified commercial 4x4s on their books.

NFU = £586 (£200 excess)
Adrian Flux = £535 (think excess was also £200)
Brentacre = £450 (350 excess)
Got loads of no-claims, am not protecting it, and am 38 with a clean licence. On top of that the vehicle isn't highly modified, only recovery points, 2" lift, MT tyres and plywood rear cargo area.

Another question to anyone with a better memory than me:
I seem to remember many months ago seeing an insurance thread in which it was said that with one particular insurance company BigJimny is considered an owners club and there's a discount as a result?
