Safely Insured Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Classic car insurance is usually for second cars, limited mileage, kept in garages, no commuting use, no or few mods etc. There is much more to it than the age of the vehicle.

Safely Insured Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 What exactly is a classic policy ? There are a variety on the market place but generally will have stricter entrance criteria and less policy benefits (eg no NCB accrual) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purity14 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I have mine on classic for less than £300 per year. Someone on here got the lowest quote i think it was raven, of £192 3 mods max usually. Milage is agreed and usually less than 5000 miles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 well im due in feb so will be looking to get it down this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk1its Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 My car is finally ready for collection after 4 months of work so it's time to insure it. Footman James halved the price of Sky Insurance at £342 for the year with a 250 excess. You don't accrue NCB but who cares at that amount..?

peter richards Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 just done a quote with footman and james and it came in at £225 , which isn't to bad exess was 100 so might get it less if I increase that but it didn't give the option to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purity14 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Congrats! Footman James are one of the cheapest, along with Lynbrook. Everyone gets quotes around the £200-500 but you have to pay more for agreed value. You don't have to pay anywhere near as much as what Sky Insurance are charging, agreed value or not.

Safely Insured Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Congrats! You don't have to pay anywhere near as much as what Sky Insurance are charging, agreed value or not. That would depends if you/the car qualify for classic cover or not, an awful lot of members will not be able to get this cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 YeH it's great if you have a bone stock car you never use. But who here has that? Not many Me. I have been with Lynbrook for three and a half years. Never paid more than £330 for a 5K miles policy with wheels and exhaust as mods. I have now dropped the miles to 3K as we never use her but that brought it down to £280. I only paid £15 for agreed value of £8500. I just had to send in some pics of the car and mileage etc. I have had classic policies since my Supes were over 10 years old. Finding people to do this is hard. Once they are over 15 years it's a doddle. H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I have mine on classic for less than £300 per year. Someone on here got the lowest quote i think it was raven, of £192 3 mods max usually. Milage is agreed and usually less than 5000 miles Just been quoted £166 LV insurance on a 5,000 mileage fully comp PNCD. Was with £100 voluntary plus £200 compulsory excess though. So likely to go for a £188 Admiral on £100 voluntary excess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
