Have to wonder, with some people seeing much higher rises than others, if the risk profiles have changed significantly (eg. certain models etc).

For example, mine went up from £550 to £700 in May this year (best broker could find).  Thats a low end 5 year old Audi Q3, max NCD (15y+), and I think my broker upped the excess too.
Whats that?  27% increase I think?

Someone suggested recently that Land Rover (I think) had been mentioned in the industry.

After reading so many of these threads I ran a dummy quote for my current car. Still looking at around the £300 mark for a Ford c-max. 

I do have a non fault accident drop off from last years quote

My Landrover saw its premium reduce this year to £248.        I believe the more significant increases are on cars with  keyless entry and in town/city locations where thefts are more common.   That hits certain landrovers and other brands harder.

Mine has gone up from £218 to £544. I know I had a claim but I had bonus protected.
