Thanks tried Hastings but they won’t quote

Thanks for replies . Best quote I have is £850 but company gets very poor reviews so think I will contact Admiral to see if they can improve offer. Did try Privilege, LV and Lexus own Insurance but all of these would not offer cover . I live in low crime area, no convictions or accidents and 18 years no claims so can only think its a problem with LC500? Could it be that insurers have seen the price of replacement parts - I guess its telling that Lexus will not even offer alloy wheel insurance when you buy it.

Wondered if anyone can recommend insurer as just got renewal quote of £1100 (£500 more than previous year) ?

Since 2015 I have tried various similar cars trying to find the one that works for me. I changed an R231 SL500 (18mths) to a Ferrari California (6 weeks) back to new SL500 (6mths) then to 2017 V8 Vantage roadster (18mths) then to new 992 (6mths) then back to 2018 V8 vantage roadster (9mths) then Boxster 4.0GTS (6mths) then 2021 Vantage coupe (4mths) which I part exed for my LC500 a couple of months ago. My opinion of above cars is that the LC is hard to beat and certainly wouldnt change it for a 992 which to me felt more like a VW product and not very special at all. I preferred old Vantage to the current model one which was wearing for longer trips due to road noise . This would put me off DB11 which has some similarities to new Vantage plus DB11 interior not for me. Reality of having Ferrari for daily drive was a bit too much for me even if it wasjust a California so wouldnt revisit the brand (wife hated it ). Mercedes SL500 were both great cars (design always looked a bit misshapen to me and I loathed the cheap black plastic wing vents) .Latest model looks better but is silly price for V8 versions and dont know why anyone would be happy with the 2 litre model for £100k? Think AMG GT may not be that relaxing for long drives for same reasons as current Vantage but havent driven one. i would recommend replacing your LC with a new LC500 convertible 🙂
