I'm sure this question's been asked many times, but a search didn't present anything useful so thought i'd best check.

Had one of those frustrating calls with my current Insurer (Hastings Direct) & they're unable to do a change of vehicle from the F10 M5 as have a value limit of £75k. They tried a couple of other Underwriters, but still no joy so they're cancelling my M5 Policy from 28th Feb & thus i'll need a fresh new policy for the FFRR. What was refreshing is as they were unable to offer a quote for the FFRR, they've waived the policy cancellation fee & will refund me in full the unused portion of the M5 policy.

Now this brings up the need for me to hunt down insurance for the new car & thought given it's somewhat of a more specialist vehicle & more so given the value i'd ask on here for recommendations??

I've been lucky to date in that even for performance cars such as the M5 & GT-R, i've never due to a good driving record, decent postcode, no claims & Max NCB paid more than £500 per annum for Class 1 Business Use with 15k pa mileage. I'm hoping the FFRR isn't going to be a great deal more but accept given the higher value it's bound to be an increase on my current cost.

Try the NFU. I am with them and they don't even demand a tracker

Thanks, i'll give them a go.

Have been somewhat surprised so far with the usual rodent & fat opera singer comparison sites. Best so far is just over £1k which is somewhat frustrating given my F10 M5 costs just over £400 to insure. I can accept the FFRR may be a touch more desirable to the undesirables, but one's a 750bhp £75k Saloon car (without Tracker) & the other a 260bhp £95k SUV (with Tracker).

Hard to see how it can be over twice as much to insure.

I gave A-Plan a go & they've come in at £840 with an underwriter i've never heard of but am told is a premium insurer for FFRR's & looks likely where i'll spend this months 'other' car tax.
