+1 for A Plan. have also used Lancaster Insurance in the past and they were pretty good too.

 

[Copperman05]

Best bet is to hunt around, try as many companies as possible as they all vary depending on your circumstances. Classic line were the cheapest for me.

88 lux used as a daily driver, £279 - 10k PA, wife as named driver, parked off road, Aviva Direct via Nowell and Richards.

Another here for Heritage, mine's the same order of cost too but as pointed out elsewhere they tend to be good for Agreed Value, which I've got and would recommend....had to make a claim some years back and they were very good about it!

Well worth going for an Agreed Value policy if your mileage will be reasonable.

I contacted PJ Insurance ( Peter James Insurance).

I am waiting the policy docs to check they didnt mis- hear me but they have quoted me £194 for my Porsche 944 Lux and also my Alfa GTV together Based on total value of £3600 and 3000 miles per annum.

The next best was Lancaster who wanted nearly £500 just for the Alfa!

Will let u know outcome

Went with A-Plan in the end £300 fully comp, not bad as I am in South London with 2 only years no claims.

Performance direct quoted me £236 fully comp via confused.com so I rang them up to take it as that was the best I could find and the guy said
that they couldnt honour that as I had put down that I owned another car (there was nowhere on the confused.com site that had that option). As I dont own
another car I do not qualify for their classic car insurance so the premium went up to over £1000

First quote were over £1000 as well.

I'm with Performance Direct, less than £150 fully comp. Found them through go-compare or confused.com can't remember which.

 

[appletonn]

Just moved from AON (now part of another group and renewal had gone up by 15%) to Haggerty - very impressed with attitude and service from Haggerty.

Oh and £280 for my 'Beetle' with agreed value and 5000 miles per annum.

 

[Suffolk944]

Would give A Plan a ring as they seem to be brokers for all sorts of "specialist" vehicles and policies in all sorts of circumstances. No idea if they may able to come up with anything cheaper than the more mainstream providers, but might be worth a try.

 

[DavidL]

Another vote for A plan, but ring the thatcham branch as that seems to where all these more specialist things are.
I pay 380 for a 944T "normal policy", wife and I to drive, no claims etc if that helps.

 

[supersport]

Try direct line and norwhich union. I used NW sorry Aiva and it cost £240 for me and the wife 12,000 miles per year. I had full no claims from previous car.

I think Direct line was about the same, but required Thatcham approved security devices fitting which I didn't want to do on a car that cost less than £2K

 

[MRGT]

I pay around £300 with Direct Line- daily drive, 150000 miles a year, me and wife, protected NCB, guaranteed hire car.
Fortunately I bought mine with a Thatcham approved system already fitted.

Phil,

You dont need to dump your classic insurance. I have a classic policy with unlimited mileage and communting with Classic Line, one of only a few who will run classic insurance on an only car. My S2 is kept on the street in London, fully comp, agreed value, all for £364. Worth a call...

They may not do this any more. When I bought my 944 in September I phone Classic line as this is who I ensure my 911 with. They would do it but only for £650! They said that they weren't really interested in daily runner kind anymore.

Of course it could just be that the person I spoke to didn't know what they were doing.

I have found classic line very helpful and flexible - well worth a try.

Seems unlikely to me as my policy started on 11th Sept 09, anyway def worth a call they seem to be the most competitive for many.

[Alpine]

thanks for that everyone, plenty to go at there, and those figures sound cheaper than I thought. Cheers.

 

[Suffolk944]

Yup just to say as well go for the Thatcham branch of A Plan rather than any of their others.

That's really annoying then as you have exactly what I wanted. I have been with Classic line for a couple of years now and found them really good to deal with. I will try again when I come up for renewel. Maybe it was clouded by already having my 911 with them.
