Range Rover are 'near impossible' to insure says Director

My recent LinkedIn post goes like this:

"£20,000 to insure a new Range Rover kept in London.

Clients refusing to take delivery of their car

Land Rover don't insure their own cars anymore

Brokers still trying to get the HNW motor underwriters to insure them on a stand alone basis

Other brokers calling us to insure their clients new Range Rovers

Meanwhile Land Rover are doing what to help their clients?"

It caused a stir. Who is most responsible for this issue?

Land Rover for not installing enough security to their vehicles eg a build in Ghost Immobiliser or a swanky steering wheel lock?

Or

Insurers for charging proportionately to the risk? Eg 1 in 6 Land Rovers are stolen so of course rates are high to insure them!

Or

Owners for not protecting their car enough with steering wheel locks or even garage it if you can instead of leaving it on the drive.

But then what if you live in London? Well the short answer is pay the premium or don't buy a Range Rover. No matter which direction you look they are near impossible to insure and don't go looking at Admiral on this occasion because the value of these new Range Rovers whether you're paying list price or a premium on the used car market either way they cant help you insure it.

Have a nose at some of the comments taken from my LinkedIn post about Range Rover thefts and the difficulties owners face when coming to insure a new Range Rover.
