Hi All,

If 14th November is indeed the date the first batch of GR86 are rolled out, then 24th October which is 3 weeks from starting the insurance should be the best time to get a decent quote.
Has anyone managed to get an insurance quote yet with the GR86.
My usual punters are Admiral but haven't tried to quote yet.

Cheers.
 
It's on Compare The Market as a model and while I did get a silly £3k+ quote form one place a few weeks ago, it's disappeared and no one will quote now. Model isn't on Admiral's books yet (I'm with them) and the plates on the fleet cars don't show either. Guessing a few databases have to update yet. I got a quote on the last GT86 Pro and was about £350ish. I'd expect less, given my current car is £194 and newer normally means safer as I got a reduction when I got a newer car years ago, all because it actually had VSC
 
Nope. As above, ran it through both compare the market and money supermarket....no quotes available. Direct Line couldn't quote, nor could Admiral.

Know who else couldn't quote? Toyota themselves :/
 
Has anyone checked with Toyota? I did ask the dealer back in June when the delivery was imminent and he promised to get back to me ;) You can deduce whether it actually happened :P
 
Just an FYI for everyone but the GR86 has now started appearing on insurers’ quotes and prices are now coming up.

Updated my quote on Confused when previously wasn’t getting any hits back, but now all the Admiral group companies (admiral, bell and elephant) have come back with quotes.

Slightly more expensive than I was expecting though but a good sign to suggest cars are imminent now!

Yup, just checked, quotes appearing now. Very expensive considering it's Admiral who are usually the cheapest. This doesn't bode well, as tbh, after our last experience with Admiral, I would rather avoid them.

Appears to be in group 46 (or 45 for the AT)
Obviously it was gonna be higher than the GT but I'm a bit shocked by that tbh :oops:
 
Just got the next email and thought i would check the insurance. Its only showing admiral group quotes for me out of 120 insurers so must not be added to many yet. The main issue I would see is insurance always hikes up when you get to a week before you need it, which is probably the amount of notice we'll get for delivery (more likely a day hey!)
 
Are the insurance quotes high because the GR86 has only just been added, i.e., needs time to bed in for the sensible quotes to start coming through?

More expensive to insure than a V12 vantage is ridiculous.
 
I'm sure it will come down once more insurers start listing, the current prices are silly for this car considering the price.

Just for fun, it would be cheaper for me to insure an R8 :ROFLMAO:

No no, under £500 for my N. GR quotes coming back circa £3,500.

Good God!

I can't justify that sort of cost - I'm hoping that being old, having a clean licence (at the time of posting), working in a very dry sensible sector and basically living on a farm will result in a sensible quote or two.
 
As others have said, I imagine it’s just the first companies chancing it as the only options. Being in the same group as an RS4 doesn’t make much sense however…
