1) Insurance prices are going up across the board. Insurance companies own vast amounts of government bonds, the value of which have plummeted dramatically over the last year or so. The rising insurance prices affect both ICEVs and BEVs.
If I recall I saw mention of renewals anything up to 40% increase on the previous year.
Maybe they need to stop insuring Range Rovers given how easy they are to lift and anything else in the top 5 most nicked cars list. 10-12 Range Rovers stolen and they probably get 15-20k in on the premiums but lose a million quid on payouts, that cost is passed on next time around.
Annoying that I have trackers and extra protection on my vehicles yet an out of the box Range Rover appears to have some tonka toy solution.
