      Thats because they don't understand the point of LR insurance - The policy is designed to give cover for people who can't get covered. If you can get cover elsewhere, no matter how expensive, its not the policy for you!

      Yet JLR and this video are framing this as JLR insurance saving the day. Loads of customers are getting rejected. The policies if you get on are only provided on a month on month basis so can be terminated at any time. Hardly the bespoke and revolutionary product this video suggests.

      Yeah it’s underwritten by LV/aviva who have lost millions on JLR products last year. They wouldn’t cover me although admiral gave me a very good price all things considered (1300 for 2019 autobio p525). Insurers are not a charity so unless JLR want to underwrite the loses nothing changes unless the security is fixed. The policy is mostly for new cars as they lost so many sales on new cars as people weren’t willing to pay the premiums. Meanwhile my car hasn’t had a recall notice yet for the security.

    These range rovers are currently tanking in value especially with heavy theft. Insurance prices are getting out of hand. Some insurers are FLAT OUT REFUSING to insure them in London if you park the car on street or on driveway but no gate. They are too easy to steal. A hole can be cut in the back 3 wires joined and with no key car will start and drive. Tracker can be in 1 of about 3 places in a range rover aswell easy to disable and keyless entry signal manipulators easy to find. I know someone whos range rover was stolen at bloody tesco car park using a keyless key device.

    This is a beautiful car and I do disagree that it’s overpriced when you look at its direct competition.. I totally agree on the insurance front, absolutely bonkers and I know JLR are doing there own insurance now but there are downsides when you look at the on-line feedback where they are only offering insurance to a relatively select group of people.. Lastly, on the theft front, it is worth noting that only 12 Range Rovers have been stolen out of the last 12,000 sold and 17 from the last 17,000 Range Rover Sports… Som they are getting there…. Oh, and reliability, another area that’s been really improved.. I’ve had to have a new engine in my Discovery so I’m not biased to JLR but just want to support a business that employs so many UK residents…

    I'm sorry but why cant JLR do something like putting a password or pin on the drivers display before starting up the car. Because if the key is cloned or something and the thieves can get into the interior of the car, then at least they will need a password to be able to drive it which only the owners would know. Hence less cars getting stolen. I think Tesla have something like this and it clearly works because barely any Tesla's get stolen.
    To me it sounds a little bit like a massive insurance scam. JLR car's are super easy to get stolen through design flaws. They get shipped off to random countries never to be seen again, all while insurance companies pay customers to get a new car again as their old one got stolen. Hence JLR making more money?

Hard to get over here (only LWB) and the prices are crazy compared to the Toyota Landcruiser which is the better vehicle for hacking around in.
