Insurance for Dual Motor

[Giller]

Anyone having issues with getting insurance for S6 Dual Motor? Speaking with a friend who is considering one and like me has a multi policy with Admiral tells me they won't cover the dual, just the SE and Trophy long range.

I did a dummy quote with my current insurer Quote Me Happy (Aviva) and they didn’t quote me happy at all with no quote available.

Then I went on an insurance comparison site and it wasn’t cheap with the cheapest being with AA. The dual motor is in insurance group 42 out of 50.

I also couldn't get my S6 Trophy Long Range single motor insured with my existing insurer Allianz, as it wasn't in their systems at all.
I also used the comparison sites and went went with the AA

As mentioned originally Admiral cover the SE and Trophy long range, they don't use the comparison sites and they are pretty keen with prices.

Ended up going with the AA for insurance in the Dual Motor.

£770 for 2 drivers, 10k miles, + business usage, and an sp30.

Everyone else over £1,000

Maybe like the IM5 and 6 motors insurers are holding back as they like the S6 they are new cars and not enough data available for some underwriters to do the math and come up with a premium.

Does seem those who will quote are making sure they are covered though.

That's pretty steep

That's pretty steep

It is. Also 20 yr no claim - there's no other quote I could find cheaper. It is 360hp £42k car. If anyone manages any better let me know, I'd love to get it down.

Is that expensive though? A brand new pretty powerful unknown car to the market. 2 drivers, 10k miles a year plus business usage and a speeding ticket.

Yes exactly, who knows. It's just the best available. If anyone else is comfortable to share it would be interesting to see. I had a VW ID3 for 4 years prior. That went from 360 yr 1 to 800 yr 2, then levelled out around 500 years 3 and 4 in similar crisis.

My dummy quote gave me about £550 with AA. 8k miles, 2 drivers, no business use and no points. Currently paying £300 on a 2021 HS PHEV.

That seems a ridiculous price for an id 3 my Born peaked at £380 down to £280 this year. 2 drivers, 8000 miles no points full NCD
