One Jaaag.
The rest are SORN.
Fuck, that's quite a premium then.
I contacted Lockton too (JEC) and it was £300, but that cover had open driving (min age of driver 35), so represented some value in the cover level.
After that I didn't get past asking Peter James, because lockdown. Hard work shopping around when so many are working from home and the inevitable lag in communications that creates.
(Plus I can only hide from Mrs H in the shed only so long before suspicion is aroused )

Historically, I've found Peter James to offer approximately similar premiums to FJ.
I've got an old multi-car policy with FJ that I'd be reluctant to use, it's got use of other cars / bikes and multiple drivers, etc., but not if it costs the earth.
I'll see what the situation is in May when my renewal comes up.
On the road:
1998 Disco 4.0 V8 (manual)
1994 Vauxhall Calibra 3.0 V6
Running but need fettling:
1986 Honda CBX750F
1991 Maserati 222 SE
1990 Yamaha XJ900F
I've been paying less than £500 for the last 10 years with FJ for a mixture of vehicles, currently 3 cars and one bike. They've been happy to add vehicles for little more than a small admin fee, and I reversed my camper into the side of a VW Scirocco about 4 years ago, it didn't affect my premium.
All in all, in my experience they've not been a bad insurer. But a 50% increase in premium can FRO.

That's not too brutal, ~10%. I don't think anyone will be needing 10k this year
In other news.
Yesterday it was taps aff weather, so I decided to take the 306 to work. I haven't used it in about a month and I'd paid the outrageous Motor Tax for the quarter. Also the NCT ran out 4th, but the NCT centres are shut.
Got to work and something wasn't right, in the OSF. Nursed it home at the end of the shift (27 miles) and took a look under the arch.
