940 insurance

[psl]

Just had our renewal through on the multi car policy we have and shock and horror at said price. Does anyone on here with a late 940 have a classic car insurance policy?
Rang my previous company up I had the old viva on and they said my 98 model was too new to insure with them

My 91 qualified for classic but my 97 didn't.

Saying that, I'm 32, 3 points and had a claim against my policy last year (drove into the back of my friends limited edition Harley, and yes we're still friends) and my insurance cost me £380 fully comp with 6000 miles.

They took £40 off the original quote because I said I was a member on this forum.

Over all it was cheaper to insure my cars though two different policies rather than a multi car one.

I found that as well as well with Zurich

I wont be renewing my multi car policy this year to be honest, as I refuse to pay nearly £300 per car, when ive no points and have full NCB and the wrong side of 45. Its a jolly big bill to foot all in one go.
Ill be insuring my works van and private cars independently but I'm trying to find a company that`ll insure the 940 on a classic policy, alas its a 98 model that makes finding such a company rather limiting.

A few weeks ago I bought a Lexus IS 220D so now have 3 cars.

I have 2 Volvos a 1989 240GLT and a 1996 940.

I passed my test in 1999 and am now 38 and haven't had any claims or accidents but as I lived in France AXA UK wouldn't honour AXA France NCD as needed a legal, professional translation costing hundreds so had to start again.

The 940 NCB I have built up again and have 5 years no claims. The 240 was on classic car.
I wanted to put the 940 on classic too and use my 5 years no claims on the Volvo onto the Lexus as getting quotes of £800-1000 just for that based on 0 NCB.
I couldn't find anyone who could put the 940 on a classic policy.
In the end went with admiral multicar for £1300 for all 3 cars.

In the many threads I have seen over the years on this subject I have always wondered why people never seem to name the Insurer concerned; whether they have gone with them or not, and what they were quoted and eventually paid.

If you got a good deal tell all. As long as it's the truth there's nothing they can do, and it may well drive sales in their direction. Bob

I thought I was copping it hard. I`ve just got off the phone to my insurance company to cancel and they instantly dropped by £130
Ive been going through quotes and for my van and my main private car they have come in at £207 and £178 respectively, just need to find a policy for my other halfs car and the Volvo now

Last year I tried to insure my 1996 940 2.3ti Classic with the company that does insurance for the club, only they would not give cover in my post code
OL9, this year they did offer cover providing the car was kept in a garage overnight, I have finished up this year with Footman James, fully comprehensive, for the fully comp was £158 .77, then the extra's, agreed value of £3500=£10, salvage retention=£15, legal protection=£25, full breakdown cover with home start=£80, arrangement fee=£15, so in total £303.77.

Yeah, my '97 940 is on a classic policy. £115 last year (2k mile limit), £170 this year. I'm about 30, 7 years NCB. I just use the online quotes and go for the cheapest, never going to claim anything anyway.
