Another insurance question.

1969 Rover 3500 P6, NCB, myself and brother £50.00 excess, windscreen, Europe and uk breakdown recovery £92.00 full comp

Sounds good. Insurance Co? Mike.

Try Boncaster, or Richardson Hosken, or Equity Red Star, or whatever they're calling themselves this week. They have various Club schemes, and it may even be worth joining the appropriate club to get benefits like free breakdown cover (full recovery). Not that an SD1...

Mine's a "classic" policy, which requires availability of an everyday car, and doesn't accumulate NCD. They'll cover several classics on one policy, though I'm not sure how much that saves compared with individual policies.

Thanks for the suggestions Kevin. I'll give them a try. Mike.

Last time mine came up for renewal I found Direct Line gave me as good a deal as any without restrictions - but I have my other car and house insured with them.

That's the same lot as I suggested, so they must be good :-)

I've put me glasses back on so can see that you did :-))

My other classic was insured by them and when I had an accident with it they paid in full and gave me the vehicle back, I had it professionally repaired and MOTed and they re insured it with no extra premium so when my latest car came along there was no contest.

I've used Lancaster for 20 odd years every since I started Driving as I have always been insuring at least one classic car. They are not the cheapest but they do a good classic package. Bits to look out for when comparing price are: Agreed Valuation if you get a total loss Replacement of Old parts with New irrespective of condition No quibbling over using your prefered classic car garage rather than the local body shop Not charging you if the repairs increase the value of your car

I've found them very helpful settling claims unlike the insurance companies I've used for modern cars so am happy to pay the slight premium. Also the difference between =A3130 fully comp and =A3140 fully comp on the classic isn't worth shopping round for.
