Can anyone provide recommendation on Insurers?
I've obtained a couple of insurance quotes pending the 'imminent' arrival of my new 2016 Aero both of which are just short of £1,250!! That's more than 3 x what I was paying for my 911 Targa 4's.
I'm 55+ (just), full no claims bonus, clean licence, no accident history, driving since I was 17, IAM member, car always kept in a fully alarmed garage, etc, etc .... and they want a tracker fitted as a compulsory requirement
Seems a bit OTT!
Any (helpful) suggestions welcomed

I dont know that I can help so much as console.When I bought the Ferrari, 8 years old but much the same cost as a new Aero, I had the same problem needing an agreed valuation and a guarantee that any repair would be in a Ferrari approved body shop. I ended up with a Hiscox High Net worth policy ( There's a joke!) through this broker
http://www.aib-insurance.co.uk/ and like you I had to have a tracker.My background is much the same as yours even down to the IAM and the insurance cost is £1000 but the tracker adds £300 so I'll be very interested if you find an alternative. FWIW, other Ferrari owners seem to end up paying the same sort of money.
I did find that I could get as low as £450 though the comparison sites but without agreed value and agreed bodyshop. And of course if the value of the car was around 50 / 60k, it would be a very different matter whereas I guess your new toy has to be around £100k.
