I'm just wondering what insurance company you guys use as I'm with Aviva which isn't classic insurance for my 1980. I told them on the phone the car is worth what I paid but I am not sure that if there's an accident or it gets nicked that they may just be like "well it's 35 years old so here's 300 quid" or that if I had a very minor ding they would write the car off as I am sure just sourcing a bumper, bonnet, slam panel and a wing in the US alone for instance then shipping them over would already come to quite a few grand. It seems any damage to these rare cars will cost 10x more than a normal car to fix and the smallest accident could write it off resulting in the insurance company taking away a perfectly good car. Do classic insurance take a little more money in premiums to go that extra mile to help you out in a crisis? Or maybe there's a company more suited where someone can come out or I can send pictures to get an agreed value.

Classic line for me. Last year it was about 150 quid. All mods declared, fully comp, 3000 miles, agreed value. 30y old, no points, 1 accident.

Adrian flux quoted about the same but their policy didn't include breakdown cover.

Also worth trying footman james
