That's a major reason I didn't buy a turbo 210 I looked at a few years
ago. Insurance on any 210 was outrageous, according to my broker. I'm
paying less of a yearly premium than quoted above, have 1MM smooth, an
airframe that's 25 years newer and a hull value almost four times that
quoted above. This for my Mooney Bravo.


Any idea of why the difference is so dramatic? I thought the 210 had a
decent accident rate.

I'll probably end up with a 182 again as that way I have the required 50
hours in type.
