Classic insurance | PUBLIC ENQUIRIES | Forum

Hi Rob

Welcome to the Forum and to the Wolseley Register!

From my personal perspective, the figure quoted to you sounds reasonable, and different company premiums are unlikely to vary greatly. However, obviously without knowing your specific details regarding classic car insurance, I doubt that anyone could comment further on any specific quote. I would say that If you aren’t currently experienced at insuring classic cars, then do obtain 2 or 3 quotes first before you select one, and I would also recommend that you make your selection not only on the premium, but also on the differences between the covers, exclusions and excesses. Footman James is another insurer recommended by the Wolseley Register but their are many other specialist insurers who all advertise in the relevant journals.

I hope his helps
Bob

Thanks Bob ,
I finally selected ” Lancaster Classic ” after checking another two specialists . Not cheaper but probably better cover but without breakdown for the moment as mileage will be local and I have a trailer/tow car. Agreed value , 1500 Miles/year , fully comp inc windscreen , legal etc at £106-25 . Quoted full breakdown to home address for another £50 odd but left it out.

Yesterday , I received confirmation from LANCASTER , that after posting photos of under bonnet , interior front/rear plus roof lining and all exterior body angles , they have agreed a valuation insurance wise of £15,000 for ”Winston” (12/48) Very pleased with that , especially without a face to face with the car.
