As previously mentioned anyone about to purchase a new RRS will most certainly be very surprised with their insurance quote .
Yes all car insurance has increased this year but what an increase on the RRS .
Previously quoted Dec last year — £550 .
This year for the sum of £2450 .
Yes I could get insured under £1000 from a suspect companies who I am sure I would not get the right return from a claim .
So I then contacted a national broker and this was at £1850.
So it seems that poor security has finally caught up with LR .
Sorry they will be unable to sell cars if their customers have to pay more to insure their RRS 3ltr diesel / petrol than a Ferrari supercar .
Would like to know from others regarding their experience but I am seriously reconsidering my purchase .
Finally it must be noted that the new RRS is a superb car which unfortunately is being undervalued by its inadequate security.
Sad Day .

I am afraid the Range Rover sport has become a red flag to main insurers, I sold my one recently and I don’t think I’ll buy another, my Land Rover Discovery is creeping up on the insurance as well, the broker told me a lot of insurance companies are not insuring Range Rover sports anymore, on another note when I went to sell my sport I tried to get the private plate off of it on line, DVLA would not let me saying I needed to fill out a form and send it to them so someone could check the details, they all so said I may have to have the vehicle checked, in the end I left the plate on it and sold to a dealer.

Blimey that's a big increase!. 2006 2.7 TDV6 HSE in Cairns Blue.

Many thanks Crs for your comments— much appreciated.
However it’s a shame that you are the.only one prepared to reply .
Perhaps everyone else is already aware of the concern and don’t want to comment.

There have been several posts about rising insurance costs recently. . This might confirm your thoughts around the general awareness here and could also explain the number of responses to your own post. If you do a search you'll find the other threads with pages of comments on the subject. Barrie.
2017-Jan 2024: 2005 RRS 2.7TDV6. Best car I ever had - until now!
Current: 2018 Ford Ranger Wildtrak 3.2

Yes this subject has been posted a lot recently, especially with the potential owners of The new RRS. It’s certainly putting a few people off buying them, especially in the London area.

News Today.
Aviva and NFU will NOT insure the Range Rover Sport — UNBELIEVABLE.

Adrian Flux were the last to insure my sport, but it was not cheap.

Adrian Flux — quoted today £3500 .
I have max no claim etc - no conviction etc .

It’s ridiculous. I am with Adrian Flux on my other 2 land Rovers , the Range Rover Sport is going to be killed off by insurance companies, I know people joke about them being drug dealer vehicles but it’s not actually a joke. I was in the market for a new vehicle but I wouldn’t buy a new sport now.

Tim ,
It seems with NFU they will only accept existing policies but not new .
My concern would be how much future policies will be priced.
However it’s still concerning regarding the brand and would think LR will assist by introducing their insurance cover .

After seeing this today I thought I had better get a quote from NFU myself - £860 for a 440e (used reg plate from one for sale by a dealer) in rural Lancashire, garaged, which isn't great but half the price of a Tesla Model S (that i also got a quote on) and, oddly, one third cheaper than the six year oil Volvo XC90 T8 that I am currently using with market value one third the RRS! Though currently insuring that with Volvo insurance for £500...

Have just emailed dealer to see if the inclusion of a towbar is going to delay things into 2024 as suggested on another thread...

Just heard towbar is adding a month on…
