Just got my renewal through from Admiral and it's gone from £400 per year (on my previous TDV6) to £1200 per year.

Did the usual Compare sites and loads of companies are refusing to quote due to the value of the car (e.g. AXA).

So can anyone recommend a good specialist for high value cars? What sort of quotes are people getting recently?

Not as high value as an SVR but I insured my AB with NFU Mutual. Due to my city location, in the past they had always either refused to insure my cars or quoted ridiculous premiums. However, last year for the current car their quote was only about £150 more than the cheapest but cover and customer service was miles better and worth the extra in my opinion so I went with them. I paid just under £1,300 but that's London so should be cheaper for you. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top
Gone: MY16 RRS2 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic, Carpathian Grey & Santorini Black Sliding Pano/Ebony & Ivory 2 Tone
Gone: MY13 RRS 3.0 SDV6 HSE Black Edition, Orkney Grey/Ivory
Gone: MY09 RRS 2.7 TDV6 HSE, Santorini Black/Almond

Just got a good deal with Lloyds Bank car insurance, about £800 (thru LV), unless you are about 18 u should get a similar quote!

I pay £380 with Privilege,must have a Tracker fitted though

Wow, for an SvR?!

Bloody hell £1200,what's your post code? 1R AQ

Tried everywhere, in the end (thanks to Sally) I went to compare the market and Lloyds came out best. My previous insurer wanted £2k+

High value, highly desirable car with some well publicised security issues in the family. Hardly surprising the insurers are twitchy... 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

It's hard to compare quotes amongst people with different models, ages, postcodes, mileages, driving history, claim history, optional extras, mods, named drivers etc etc. L405 P400e Autobiography (MY2020)... Silicon Silver / Espresso
RRS TDV6 HSE Lux (MY2011)... Nara Bronze / Arabica - now gone!

I live in the middle of London, had only had 1 years NCD when I renewed my Supercharged Autobiography at the end of last year, no accidents or convictions, my 27 and 28 year old children as named drivers and insured with Privilege for £1,050 which I thought was pretty good.

Good point about the insurers....it is always worth paying that little bit extra for a company that honours its promises....worked for thirty years in that side of the business whereby I was coming into daily contact with the car insurers and their salvage systems....best insurer by far when dealing with claims was NFU Mutual... Proper company and an excellent claims team.... Second was Axa...very professional and organised....worst was Aviva......

Hence privately most of my cars are with Axa and my horsebox is with the NFU Mutual....


What would help considerably with your quotes is the fitment of a Thatcham Catergory 5 alarm recovery system...
