varies, some will do it for cars as little as 10 years old. the big downside is that most classic policies dont like mods

Ahh right sounds like il have to ring around :lol:

Who am i looking at? Adrian flux? Footman james? Those sort of people?

I think for Footman James the car has to be over 15 years old, and i think you have to be 21 or 25 i cant remember off the top of my head.

and yeah i think the car has to be 100% standard.

It also depends on the car, believe it or not it is cheaper to insure an older more valuable car. I tried insuring my Peugeot 205 with a classics broker and they wanted £9000 a year :shock::shock:

Mods are def declared as well as wheels alone are insured for 1k.

Pretty sure you have to have limited milage tho and has to be garaged (or at least his policy he does)

i got a quote for a g40 on a classic scheme - 3k miles a year, 0 years no-claims £200 fully comp with performance direct.

footman james was the only company who would insure me when i was 18 but only on a low performance car - wouldn't insure me on the G40 :(

Also don't build up any no claims on the policy.

My G is modded and is on Classic insurance through HIC. 15 years is their cut off.
