Where does the performance "VAG" collective procure its car insurance please? Admiral multi-car trying to stiff me on year 2 renewal...

thanks

ETA it's a leased S8 so i won't be the registered keeper or owner...

I'd already rung them and had the price reduced a bit. I think the major issue is that not many insurers seem to want to get involved with personal lease!

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.

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.
