Having ordered my Cooper Works last month (awaiting with baited breath for the apparant June 21st delivery) I phoned my current insurer - What Car Insurance (the car mag, but insurance actually done by Royal & Sun).
They quoted £400ish plus a 10% loading for the works package - and I live in London, generally a high risk, so high premium area.
I have worked in actuarial costing of insurance, and I know that insurers will tend to penalise risk, especially when it is more unknown - hence it doesn't surprise me if people are getting silly quotes - I think the message is shop around to find an insurer experienced with the type of risk.
This is my first post so apologies if its in wrong place etc! |
