I think the issue is price, C8 tips into the £100k bracket

It’s not the price. I paid 600 quid for my TTS.

Largely down to postcode and then driver history.

Agree on the postcode, what I meant is there is a significant difference in insurance cost between C7 PE and a C8 vorsprung, in my case it’s nearly £800 a year more, the main difference is you are going from a £90k car to £110k car. I found loads of insurance companies won’t insure above £100k or give silly quotes or insist on trackers

I ended up with direct line, bizarrely I got different quotes on the comparison sites for direct line by about £200??
