Audi S/RS insurance?
Discussion
Just negotiate the price down with Admiral. I do it every year. Last year I told them that Aviva gave me lower quote, the same this year and they matched it. Unfortunately combination of my cars and post code don't give me too many options and competition is even more expensive. I also need full cover abroad and not many companies offer it as standard.
I don't know what kind of quotes you get but here's price for my S8 on multicar policy:
Audi S8 2015, 8000 miles per annum, commuting + business use, excess 300+150, 10 years NCB, Surrey suburb, driveway parking - £709 (NCB protection, legal cover, foreign use and some other stuff is included)

As above my insurance is with Admiral and it was up for renewal this week.
The renewal offer came in quite a bit higher than I would like. I did an online gocompare/confused search and then called Admiral, within 5 minutes they knocked £80 off which made it cheaper than all but the cheapest quote from a company I'd never heard of.
Exactly the same situation with my bike insurance, a quick call got them cutting £110 off - sadly it seems the industry norm is to try it on with an increased renewal premium in the hope that you'll accept it or just ignore and auto-renew, only to drop it to something reasonable if you speak to them.

not sure if it was fully obvious but this was a multi-car thing, with both cars on leases... so full gamut of insurance providers were not really available to us, but would have split the cars onto separate policies if it made financial sense to do so. As it stands with Aviva it's not toooo bad, but hardly a bargain. The Mrs getting caught speeding last year clearly didn't do us any favours, but my car was still the vast part of the total.
39 (she's 32)
low risk postcode
2 non fault claims in last 5 years (none in last 3 years) also she has none
i have 2 x SP30, she has 1
I think it was like £900 for mine but the comparison websites were coming up with almost no results, think due to the lease non-owner non-keeper aspect.

This really bugs me.
We were with Elephant for years and every year, at renewal, the price would go up despite us not making any claims.
My wife would ring them up as a new customer and get a much lower quote then get them to match their own quote.
Then one year, it actually doubled at renewal from £550 to about £1,100 and she told them to f
k off.
I think we're multi-car with Admiral now - but she goes through the rigmarole with them every year too. Try getting a qute as new customer and seeing how it compares. Then get them to match it.

well i expected it to go up because of the Mrs' speeding fine, but it literally jumped up to almost double... one phone call and very quickly they reduced that to 'only' a 50% increase over last year (which TBH is the thing that pisses me off because if they empower their front line customer service people to just reduce it by that amount without so much as an approval from their manager, they clearly know they were taking the piss)... still too much, and they dug their heels in at that point. Aviva pretty much ended up pretty much the same as what i paid last year.
