Horsebox insurance and breakdown cover recommendations please

[Squeak]

A caveat to what I am about to say - this relates to insurance cover only, does not include horse recovery or breakdown.

My insurance for 3.5t Renault Master with A D Evans is due for renewal next month. Out of interest I spoke to my car insurer, LV. They will cover my Renault van, modified to carry a horse, for £120 compared to £285 with A D Evans. I was very clear that it is used as a horsebox, and it is listed as modified on the policy. So for those of you who don’t use a horse rescue insurance then this could be worth investigating.

That's really interesting. I had to really shop around this year but ended up with £210 insurance for any driver over 25 with £110 for ERS breakdown service through Equesure.

I retract my previous comment re A Plan - they messed me around hugely as it turned out they hadn't sold me breakdown with ERS for the last 4 years as they'd said they had when asked multiple times and their breakdown cover wasn't even suitable for a horsebox. I was fuming, thank goodness I hadn't needed it.
