    Talk to your insurers and see if they will give you a reduced rate for a while.

    If you can keep it on a private driveway or garage, you’ll have to SORN too.

    Where is it parked up? If on the road you will definitely need to have it insured. If it is off road then if you decide to lapse the insurance then you will also need to SORN the vehicle (due to DVLA continuous insurance rules). No claims is valid for 2 years, so 3 months won't be an issue.
