    Try Cherished Car Insurance

  • Thanks for this. I gave them a call but apparently my vehicle is too young for them. It's 18 year old. :rotfl:
  • 18 year old car is just an old car TBH.

    Needs to be around 25 and older for classic.

    Try a matched no claims on your existing policy with limited mileage for the second car to get a good premium.

    I've a classic policy on a 17yr old Alfa. I have friends with classic policies on 10 yr old cars and there are also 'future' classic policies for younger models.
    I tried UK mainland companies but managed to get the best deal at home through CCC in Coleraine. Their tel no is 028 70344321.

    When you say Classic policy, is this not just another name for specialist insurance with limit of 3000 miles pa?
  • i have a 16YO Celica insured through Aon insurance (in england not the local Aon) on a classic/cherished policy. Cheap as chips and they provide an excellent service in the event of a claim.
  • Thanks for the info.

    It's for a 1989 MK1 Golf Clipper. OH and I both have a car each and we also have this one which we use for messing around on hot summer days (should just get 2 days insurance:rotfl: ). We currently use EA Davies in Glengormley for this car. Their price is £229 which on the grand scheme of things isn't that much. However when you compare that our other 2 cars are £289 and £243 to insure I was just wondering if there is a cheaper deal for the 3rd car before I cough up the £229. Previously I've insured it for 3000 miles but we probably don't even do half of that.

    First car i insured with AON was an 83 mk1 convertible for £120 quid. May be worth a call.
  • Thanks, I'm on with AON now.
