Hi All Who do you use for insurance  A-Plan have just sent me my renewal £2K  from my current underwrighter and best price from a new insurance company £1200 which is what i paid last year, but that now does'nt include all my system and equipment, Just fully comp on the van no cover for all my kit. I have always declaired that i have a bolted water tank and diesel heater and that it is used for WFP window cleaning. Could you let me know who you use so i can try and get some quotes. Thanks

try Commercial vehicle direct My transit van with 650 bolted litre system in was £450 Had to do some haggling and leave it until the last day . They wanted £600 , after previous year of £475 , so I did well . Only van covered this as £2.5k of tools / system was a extra £70 , and I just didnt want to pay anymore .
good luck , robbing baskets

Yep,mine due as well,autonet last year £540, but will be looking to get it a bit cheaper this time.I've already given a few brokers a bit o grief about the scandalous way the insurance companies penalise you for having your system bolted down

Mel,Gladiator phoned me on Fri,gave them some details and were meant to phone back with quote on Mon,they never phoned back  Kempy,phoned CVD and they were coming in at £600 using Ageas Ins,they are going to have to phone another company to see if they will cover me(can't remember name tho)if they do it will be £520.Do you know what insurance company is underwriting your policy?
