Insurance Increase - Right Car?

[bad company]

Hi all. My 440 arrives next month, here it is on the configurator -

https://configure.bmw.co.uk/en_GB/configure/G26/4G...

I’m shocked at the insurance cost. Last year I paid £405 to insure my 2020 G20 340 MSport so this is a very similar car with the same engine. My best quote on the Meerkat site is £685 but they’re showing the car as ‘ 2024 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe M440i Gran Coupe xDrive MHEV, 2998cc Petrol, 5DR Hatchback, Automatic, £68685’. Is that the right car? I can’t see MHEV on the configurator.

Have you tried a quote on your existing car? They have generally gone up a significant chunk this year. My 435i renewal quote was about 40% up from last year.

Jeez. That’s probably about right then.
