Right, since insuring the new beastie i've gone from £330 a year on the CRuD to £505 a year on the SRT8, not bad in my opinion. That's for a 41 year old female with max ncd, driving for 22.5 years.
£350 for my 58 CRD, (I'm 37, with 15yrs NC, includes business use for myself) on a multi-car from Admiral (whole policy is £650, including my Civic, and breakdown cover for both cars for me and the wife).
Interestingly, this is actually cheaper than insuring my 57 plate VW Passat 2.0TDI that I sold to buy the 300c. Got some mad quotes before renewing though. Over £1k from some places, with a £500 excess (yes - I know some of you are paying way more than that.....)
Insurers aways lookin ways not to pay out wen u make claim and they will do electoral roll checks on claims....Wen I tried a quote for SRT8 using my inlaws address in Kent, the savings came instantaneously at almost £240 difference to what I normally paid for the 5.7. Postcode and things like if u park car in a garage overnight makes a huge difference

I paid £390 this year which although not the cheapest here it does include protected no claims, xs £100 and all with RSA. Not that good I hear you say? It is when you realise I have a BD postcode (Bradford). Luckily not a low number but even so. Apparently I win a special prize because I am the other insured car in Bradford !!!

sorry for bringing this up. I thought will share my experience. Direct line sent me a renewal for £712 ( 9 years no claims, multicar discount) with £300 excess and no claims bonus protection. So I rang adrian flux as mentioned here earlier, they quoted me £490. Not a bad saving. Is there anybody else worth trying I wonder?
