The Camaro Club (UK)

Got my 97 3.8 back in march. I paid £470 through adrian flux. 25yrs old, 2yrs ncb and 2 accidents 3 years ago, only one being my fault. To be honest its the only place i tried and snatched there arm off as most companies wanted circa £700 to insure my 1995 1.1 AX. How can something 3 times bigger and faster be half the insurance?? Crazy.

Hi guys my insurance company is R H Specialist Insurance tel no 01277 206911 for £130 with full breakdown recovery and in europe mind you iam a bit of an old git 50+ just they were the best quote with breakdown inc .Its allready been said the more names on this site the more choice for your next quote Cheers Neil PS the quote was for my Camaro .

Adrian flux £230 for my 94 427ci Z28

any advise for classic car insurance. I have a 67 camaro, i'm 26 and having a real hard time this year!

It's never going to be easy when you are younger, (seem to remember being that once!) however, consider what you actually want before calling around.

The list of insurance brokers listed here should be enough to get a good result - think though on how many miles you will want to do and whether you need to be covered comprehensively or whether you only want 3rd party fire and theft. TPF&T is OK if someone hits you or your car is stolen but no good if you have an accident with no-one else involved. Will the car be kept in a garage overnight, on a drive or on the street, the more the value of the car the more the insurer wants it in a garage overnight. Is it fitted with an alarm / immobiliser - if the car is high value (and a 67 may well be) then it may pay to get an alarm / immobiliser fitted, but if you do make sure it's a good high grade Thatcham approved one as that's what the insurer wants you to have and they may ask for the certificate of installation.

Some insurers add in extras, legal expenses, breakdown cover etc, do you need them or have you already got them? I found I'm using my car for weekends and holidays including trips to France so decent mileage allowance is needed, but it adds to the price.

Write down what you want and then pick up the phone and see whats out there.

Good luck!

Well just got my Insurance renewal from MCE. Was £430 ish last year. New quote £1150 .

F@!k that

Adrian Flux can do it for £400 so I'll be using them now.

Tried A-Plan but couldn't get cheap insurance because I'm not over 30.

ive used MCE and adrianflux when insuraning my camaro and i started off when i was 20 with my gen 2 z28, and find that adrianflux are certainly the best for it!! I havent had a camaro on the road the last year but should be back with one this summer, and more than likely will go with adrianflux, there just really easy to talk to on the phone n they do seem to undertsand what u need with such a car like a camaro!

it is so frustrating about the price going up and up, but end of the day i couldnt live with out a camaro, just have to earn more money

Can we get a general sticky/topic up in the main forum area for recommended insurers, as everyone seems to have such different experiences, some better for younger or older cars, modified friendly etc..

I'm happy to start a list others can add to

Guys great informative posts, i was insured for £454 with the post office however reading this i managed to get it down to £253 with RHspecialists, much appreciated

Please let me know if anyone arranges a camaro meet anytime soon.

Neil

Direct Line for me, beat the others hands down!!!
And the odd thing is its cheaper to insure my 1998 3.8L Camaro than my 1.25L 2001 Fiesta thru them!***@@!!
Where's the sense in that eh?
