I know it's asked a lot, my insurance renewal is coming up and wondering if classic insurance is the way to go, I'm 24 with 4 years no claims and do about 7-8 thousand miles a year, can anyone recommend some company's?

Try
Sky
Green light
Adrian Flux
HIC
Brentacre
I always enjoy insurance renewal time, getting quotes from them all then making them beach each other's prices :evil:
The most recent renewal was a record breaker, £1092 renewal to £600, from the same company :shocked:

I have CCI with Lancaster on my VR, cost me a 3rd of what i was paying previously but thats a limited mileage of 6000 and also it doesn't cover me to drive other cars unfortunately.

you may find it hard to find classic insurance on the mk3 but it's worth a try (although my brother has classic insurance on his corrado)
I really have to insure with my employers!! shame as they have limited knowledge of mods etc!
-
You also usually have to be 25 to get a classic policy :wink:
-
Ps the car needs to be 20years + to be insured as classic (footman james) thats what they told me

I would agree but my brothers corrado is a 1994 and covered with a classic policy

I'm insured with HIC, similar situation to you but I've got third party, fire and theft, no classic policy but mods allowed (usually without a premium), paying £550. Best I ever had and that's on my Anniversary.
Just got to shop around, look in the insurance part of the forum. (Which funny enough, is where I'm about to send this thread). :grin: :grin:
-
It might also be worth trying Brentacre, they were the cheapest by miles on the Octavia vRS against other specialists.
-
Moneysupermarket everytime!
Very, very unlikely you will get classic as they usually say less than 3000 miles p.a.

I'm surprised anyone even insures your car Len. :grin:

it's a shame as us insurers can't discriminate because of age or light colour!! :angry: :angry:

They discriminate against the young don't they? Should discriminate the old though, especially Len seeing has he's 420! :grin:

Young un's get much cheaper health & life insurance though as the risk of paying out is much lower.
Len may pay pennies for his car insurance but to cover his life/health he will pay lots and lots and lots (and if no payout is made, I can get a bit richer too :grin:)

We can happily help with a quote for you. If you could do 7500 miles or less it would qualify for our reduced mileage insurance.
We can also cater for all types of modifications and offer Track Day insurance at £45 per day if required.
Agreed Value cover is also available.
If you wanted to drop me a PM with your contact details id be happy to run a quotation through for you. I used to have a modified MK4 GTi so understand the VW models and the mods available pretty well.
Best Regards
