Looks like the end of the road for great value LV Cali insurance.

[lohr500]

Just received an email this evening from LV telling me they won't be able to renew my Cali insurance in October
They say that due to a change in their underwriting arrangements they will no longer be able to insure Campervans and Motorhomes.
Has anyone else received the same message?

They intend to pass my details to Gallaghers who will provide a quote unless I instruct them not to share my details within the next few weeks.
I will wait and see what Gallagher's quote, but based on previous quotations from several insurers, I suspect a doubling of my premium will be inbound shortly.

Insured mine with LV a few weeks ago, looks like I just got in while the going was good, thought it was to good to be true

About half ther price of everyone else . Been with them for 4 years so had a good run ! Got a mulit car policy with them so could be a bit of problem (another 4 vehicles - 3 of which are two seaters )

I had two vehicles on a multi-car policy with them, but it was a lot lower overall cost on renewal last year to move my wife's car elsewhere.
It will be interesting to see what Gallagher's quote for the Cali in October when the renewal is due.

That’s interesting, our LV renewal for van + car came through a couple of weeks ago and was literally half the cost of the previous year so I was v happy! Looks like I’ll be shopping around next time ..

The rate at which Campervans/Motorhomes are taken has increased dramatically in some areas.
Some (Aviva/LV) ,but not all Insurers are refusing to insure new vehicles in Worcester/Shropshire and all CV (Coventry, Warwick etc.) areas.

I think its down to the age of van my old t6 they would not renew but my newer 6.1 was ok!
so would imagine down to residual value and cost to repair older vans?

I have just received the same letter today.

Try getting a quote from AXA through SafeGuard. Unlimited stays in Europe are covered and comes with European breakdown cover.

Admiral seem to be coming up with ok prices through moneysupermarket. All mods declared etc too. (I’m currently with LV, had no contact from them but renewal is in November on a multi car policy).

 

[Snoopy23]

I got this couple years ago on my old t6, but was able to insure my 1 year old 6.1, can only assume its down to age of cali!

Just renewed mine with LV, a 22 plate coast, a £25 reduction from last year at £360 this year.
Maybe it’s a location and age thing!

Just renewed mine too, £295 down from last year by £75

Do an online comparsion via a well known website . I dropped mine down from £490 to £260. Wording was exactly the same as Comforts and the suspension mods were noted. Been with the CCC for years and they kept upping the price. £320 > £360 > £420 >£490

Tried Comfort, but they were abrupt, upped the price by min 15% for the suspension works, and demanded to see photos of each suspension leg......I very much doubt that had any clue what they were looking for. Any trailing arm and spring is still a trailing arm and spring.
