Any chance you could post the parts list for this brake setup?

£360 isn't too bad (without knowing what kind of car we're talking about). Depends on the insurer - I've been with some who don't mind multi-car policies and others that just won't touch them. Another option to investigate is temporary insurance. My insurer will let me insure a second car...
