It does with Footman James. You need to be 25 or over and use it as a second car (limited mileage).

It may well be certain insurers. Best phoning around and seeing what's on offer.

with us it is 15 years or older. There are a couple of terms though:-
1. Worth over £1000 i.e not a banger
2. You must have regular access to another vehicle.
3. Must be limited to no more than 7500/8000 mpa.
4. 21yrs old or above

i believe these are fairly common terms for a classic policy
