I'm trying to sort out the insurance for my new (to me) 04 plate Trooper Commercial 3.0 and all the insurance companies seem to think the engine size is 3059cc rather than the 2999cc on the reg document. Any ideas as it's a new one for me? Confused

I've spoken to the original owners and the original suppliers who both confirm the V5 is correct. Also, when I mistakenly put it in on a car comparison site it came up as a Citation model with a 3.0, not a 3.1, engine. What is wrong with these sites?

After a thoroughly irritating and frustrating morning dealing with DVLA, MIB and assorted insurers, went direct to Adrian Flux and got a policy I'm happy with. Incidently, my vehicle came up as a 3.0 first time with them.  Shocked

If I enter the reg number my '95 3.1 Bighorn comes up as a Van on some sites... It's an estate car!

Others get the body type right but insist it's a manual transmission vehicle (it's an auto, as I believe most of them are!) - If I try to enter the make/model none can 'find' the automatic version of either the Trooper or Bighorn!  Whenever I've changed insurance I've simply taken the quote as-is then phoned the insurance up to report THEIR error when I finalise the policy.
