Insurance costs for XC90 T8
I get my new T8 Incription Pro next month and was wondering if anyone has seen an increase in Insurance costs? I got a quote back in February however due to a mistake by my dealer with the spec of the car, the wrong one arrived. I had to reorder the car again and it has now arrived at the dealer.
I contacted the insurance company again only to find out the the quote has now more than doubled. My details have not changed, no more mileage, no claims and no convictions. The only change is the month i’m getting the car. |

I would never ever let an insurance policy go on auto-renew. They just rob you. |

I have tried that, I rang around quite a few today. The only one that is coming back with what I think is a reasonable quote is the company named after a famous Prime Minister (not sure if you are allowed to put company names on this forum). The only issue is they need a tracker on the car. I did tell them about the “Volvo On Call” system that is fitted however after some more digging I don’t think it is recognise

They are the original Volvo Insurance company and many forum members find them very competitive if not often the lowest of the “majors”. You do not normally find them on price comparison sites and have to go direct.

Thanks for that, I did try them and they were a lot less, however they needed a tracker fitted. I did tell them that it was fitted with Volvo’s “on call” but this is not recognized. Cheapest price so far for a cat5/6 tracker £600 then ongoing subscription costs of £199. I have contacted Volvo Uk to ask what type of system is fitted and if I was to fit a tracker would that have any conflict with what is fitted or warranty issues. I’m waiting for a reply.

Hi.
Please feel free to give us a try for insurance if you like. If you wanted to PM me some contact details I'd be happy to arrange for one of my quotes team to give you a call back. Regards, Dan. |
