Leonard 0 Posted February 26, 2014 Hi Want to put the Corrado on a classic policy and just had a quote of £260 from Classicline which seems ok Age 39 Good postcode Garaged 3000 miles Mods declared breakdown £250 excess £75 windscreen Agreed value £6500 Seems pretty good price, but I am getting on a bit now and wondered what others were paying to save me phoning around everywhere :D Thank you Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted February 26, 2014 Seems to be about the going rate, and Classic Line do seem pretty competitive. I have insured with them in the past when my Corrado was not being used as my daily. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leonard 0 Posted February 26, 2014 How cheap....... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted February 26, 2014 Getting on a bit...oooh you're nearly dead at 39 mate, may as well just give in now and let me have your Corrado :D What's yours got on it to make it worth £6500?!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leonard 0 Posted February 26, 2014 I was waiting for the price bashing Kev ;) LOL I figure: VSR £1250 Wheels £1000 Cams etc £300 other stuff £500+ Then as a standard pretty mint VR6 with Recaros and 85k on the clock £4000 And you can have the Corrado but for £6.5k :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted February 26, 2014 Fair enough. I thought you might have snuck a turbo on there during your absence :) It's better to over-estimate than under-estimate when it comes to insurance because you never get the agreed value back anyway, even though it was 'agreed', but don't get me started on ins companies! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robrado974 1 Posted February 26, 2014 I'm going to try these two insurers . Mines up in April . I pay £280 with performance direct , £5000 agreed value , 3000 miles , mods and I'm 45 this year . Rob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shire38 10 Posted February 26, 2014 I find it hit and miss with insurance companies, i had quotes off some that were recommended on here and they were more than double what i paid next nearest was Adrian Flux at just short of £200. Classicline wouldnt even quote because of my postcode lol. Nice to see im not the only old timer on here ha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leonard 0 Posted February 27, 2014 LV wouldn't insure me as car is not quite 20 years old yet! So went with Classicline, seemed a helpful bunch and included road assistance FOC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corradokid82 10 Posted March 6, 2014 Not a VR but my G60 is through Adrian Flux and I'm paying £183 with all mods listed and replaced like for like and £5000 GV. I'm 32 so I think that classes as being young still? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leonard 0 Posted March 7, 2014 Yeah you are still young - you git ;) LOL Good price :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted March 20, 2014 I've just rang classic line and they won't do a classic policy and can't insure me because of the mods . I simply fail to understand these people and the way they conduct their quotes . How do some people get ins with mods and some don't ? . I hate insuring the car , once you have been online every tom dick n Harry is constantly ringing you wanting to give you a quote . Think I will stick with performance direct . No nonsense insurers .

Ive not long renewed my VR insurance & found Martin at HIC to be very helpful. They will cover mods & also offer agreed value for modded cars. Martin produced the lowest quote i could find without compromising the policy. He posts on here m8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ralphead 0 Posted March 29, 2014 My car: 1990 16v, lowered, sports exhaust Me: 32 years old No points, ever! 1 Non fault claim nearly 5 years ago Policy: Classic policy 5000 mile limit Commuting I have to have unrestricted use of another car £150 excess £104 per year! I'm happy with that. Brokers are RH. The underwriter is Equity Red Star, a bit communist east sounding.. Ten minutes later Classic Line gave me a quote for cover with with Equity Red Star for £231.50, their man got a bit sh1tty when I said I'd been offered it for less than half that with the same underwriter.
