Hi I am with Norton Insurance, who give me break down cover included.

£311 fully comp 5000 miles per annum, small charge to go to 7500 per annum.
0121 246 5050.

Also Performance Marquee were slightly cheaper £271, but no break down cover, but lower excess. Thought I would stick with something I knew. 0121 2480911

Hope these help

ps. also try classic line 01455 639000 quoted £333 plus £20 break down cover.

Classicline 01455 639000, they were the best for me last year.

there are also the usual suspects like Carole Nash, Norton/Heritage RH, AON. numbers will be in the back of Porsche Post.

I went with AON, but Heritage were nearly as cheap.

I don't think there's alot of classic policies that do Track Inusrance as well, although there are plenty of specialist companies that offer it by itself.

I have just insured my car for £344 with Heritage classic car insurance: includes

Break down recovery. (reasonabley comprehensive)
PCGB organised trackdays.
Agreed value of £7k
K&N filter
18" alloys + Micheline Pilot sports
5000 miles PA
Excess £150
Fully comp.
Social domestic pleasure, and commuting.
£100 contents.
£150 audio

£50 Windscreen excess


I am 35, 3 points on license, One accident 13 months ago, £1600 cost of claim.
Car alarmed and immobilised, Garaged at night, Locks on Alloy. Central Edinburgh.

This policy does not use your NCB, useful if it is your first second car and you don't have a NCB.

Car owned two years. Second car. Access to company car at work.

If I change the chip there will be an increase of 25% in the premium. (extra £75 approx)

Car must be garaged when within half a mile of home.

This was not the cheapest quote, but offered the most for the price. Cheapest was RH at £286. No track day and a few other restrictions I didn't like.

I was talking to Norwich union yesterday. They insure all my cars and I've never had a problem with modifications through them, although I've got a long history with (over 20 years) many modified cars.

They're certainly worth a call. However, I digress...

I was asking NU about insurance on another vehicle, for which a classic policy would be best. They don't 'do classic' so kindly pointed me to Carole Nash who provided me a very good quote for the other vehicle.

While I was talking to CN, I asked them (purely out of interest) what they would quote me for a classic policy on my 944S, which is now 17 years old.

Apparently, CN don't any longer offer classic insurance policies on Porsche !!

This confuses me no end, particularly as they sponsor the 'Carole Nash Cotswold Rally' with PCGB, which im taking part in on 8th May ....

Does any one know different to the above ???

 

[berg944]

Just had my renewal from CN,

Gone up from £220 to £330.......so wont be using them again.

A Manning see porsche post insure my 944 limited milage and it included PCGB trackday coverage....they were also the cheapest.

Carole Nash dropped out of classic Porsche insurance about a year ago because the underwriters put the premiums up to non comperitive rates I was told by one of their people.

Try this as a good alternative

Insured with Allianz Cornhill
1989 944 Turbo
Agreed value £8000 (£10 per £1k over this to match club valuation when it comes through)
Milage limited to 5000 pa
Garaged
Declared my £1600 bump last year & my SP30 from 2003
Premium can be paid by instalments 10% deposit & straight split into 11 payments by DD for the balence.
Only £220.50, inc insurance premium tax, with £100 excess (£60 for glass)

This is over £50 less than the £275.10 I paid Heritage last year and beats the renewal premium from them by nearly £80

This is by far the best I've found, would recommend anyone renewing to give Peter S Taylor a call on (01273) 820303.
