Getting some high insurance quotes on a RRS Autobiography valued at £56k ish

I’m 38 with a full no claims, the wife is 31, only do about £5k miles per year. The company I’m with (elephant) want an extra £1100 on top of a £600 policy for the remaining 9 months.

Cheapest quote for a new policy is £1150 with performance direct.

Has anyone got any good recommendations?

Thanks in advance

John

As you only do 5k miles a year have you tried one of the "new" insurers that insure you by the mile.
I haven't tried it yet but saw this on BBC News today and it looks interesting.

If we all point our RR's in the same direction and accelerate at the same time can we turn back time?

If you have two or more cars in your household try a multi car policy. Our annual premium this year is £1537 for five cars, includes my RRS P400e, brand new, Mini JCW, 6 monhts old, Bentley Continental GTC, 6 years old and two cars owned and driven by my kids 22 yrs old and 19 years old. All fully comp. We are older than you and your wife J2D but have 20 years plus no claims. I was cynical at first and thought we would get screwed after the first year but this is our third year with them (Bell) and I think its great value. Excesses are fair too and vary from driver to driver and car to car. Also our mileages are Quite low c4-7k in each car per year.

Try your local NFU Mutual office (google it)...

I've been very pleased with the pricing from Admiral on a family 3 car policy. I've yet to make a claim so don't know how they will stack up then, but they do charge an excess on windscreen repairs. Merc C220 estate Sport AMG

I can recommend Routen Chaplin as the brokers that sorted my insurance out. Very helpful and well organised.

I heard over the weekend that no fewer than 5 Range Rovers with the stupid keyless entry system have been stolen in my South Lincolnshire area in the past few weeks. It seems that the crooks used a scanner to 'listen' at the wall of the house for the signal from the fob, then replayed it to the car and made their escape! Easy..

That will put everyone`s premium up, no doubt. When I bought this one, my previous insurer and four others refused to cover it at all. The broker I mentioned above did find cover with the fifth company they tried.

I have written before about how disappointed I am with the L494 after the old L320. I am looking forward to the day they fetch mine away!
