Nathanj1142 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Supra's up for renewal in the next couple months... i'm almost 23 now and they've hiked the price from £1650 to £2100 on an na-t. Has anyone else noticed this much of an increase in price this year compared to last? not sure if it's value related or what but still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Supes Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 That's a bit of a nasty rise, but TBH, I was paying £1200 at your age for an NA 5sp back in 2003/2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something about the insurance company leaning towards the theory that car enthusiasts tend to look after their cars more. I'm with A Plan.

Haven’t looked into classic policies yet, they usually tell me to F off cause I’m too young… £300 was just a generic meerkat insurer price. I’ll try APlan soon mate thanks! pretty sure they declined me last year though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with A Plan. Hopefully they'll be able to help. They look after all my cars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m12aak Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 I'm insured through Elephant Multicar (the N/A and a Mazda Premacy), it's £610 for the N/A (catback, TT brakes F+R, Bilsteins/Eibachs, Aftermarket Alloys). I'm 22 with 4 years no claims. Have you tried Elephant/Admiral direct at all? They were the only ones to give me a reasonable quote back in my first year with the car at the age of 19 (it was still £3k though), although I have no experience of what they do when the car's NA-T etc. Every renewal I've had has decreased a fair amount, but then again I'm only lightly modified. I'm not insured on the TT6 at the moment as it's still bone stock (no desire to drive it yet, happy to just have it) so I just pay for my dad to be insured on it and drive it around for a fraction of the price. Iirc when I got the TT6 I ran some quotes at the time at (20 with 2 yrs no claims) and it was £3k lol, so I just left it and have since. The price of his insurance didn't change this year with an agreed value hike up to £47,500 (up from £31,000 last year) through Lancaster, so I doubt the value will be much of a factor as to why yours is much higher. If you've gained an extra year of claim free driving (and become a year older of course!) I hope there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to get a cheaper quote of at least a couple hundred quid. Is the £2,100 the renewal price from your current insurer? If so, I know some like to increase the price in the hope they can catch you out when it auto-renews. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Reis looks after many people here. Been recommending them for ages. They've looked after quite a few people now. Good prices too. They look after my NAt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been with elephant for years on most of my dailys/previous cars, but they wont touch the supra with engine mods, only 'aesthetic'. The 2100 was just a generic quote, waiting for my renewal from sterling. I've read that the FCA have made it compulsory for current insurers to offer the best renewal price which in turn means all other quotes have increased, so fingers crossed they give me something worth looking into. Cheers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers! Thanks! Although I wouldn't really consider it to be a collection, that's the extent of it lol, but I appreciate it . It's a shame Elephant won't consider the car, but yeah as others have said a more specialist insurer should sort you out and hopefully won't charge an arm and a leg. Ah I see, at least you have something to base if off at a comparison site level when you go looking for other quotes. I didn't know about the FCA making that compulsory, meaning the overall prices have gone up, cheeky bast*rds! Thanks for the info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annabella Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Great rule by the FSA, all that's happened is renewals are a bit more competitive, but people that can be bothered to shop around have found the price has gone up, insurance companies now will make more money than before. Great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nash Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I was 23 when I got my Supra non turbo, I insured it with Admiral for around £1100 that year, last year it went down to around £900 on multicar and this year it was £405 on multicar with my two other cars and my parents car, my supra has several mods added on the insurance which I do on the online account, adding mods costs around £20 for each incl admin fee, mods are, change of colour, non standard exhaust, non standard wheels, lowered suspension and bodykit. I find Admiral very good on price and convienience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
