Just bought a V8S this evening, I already have a good insurance quote from haggerty, but just wondered if anyone has any good advice re insurance with breakdown cover thrown in.
I have not taken out the insurance yet so all suggestions welcome.

Heritage did mine for £25 on top of the circa £180 insurance. It covers returning car to base and I think Euro cover.

Insurance wise Haggerty beat my next best quote by over £500, so I'd be surprised if anyone will do you better than them.

Breakdown cover will depend upon what you want to do with the car, travelling abroad and doing track-days will both affect the type of cover you'd need and the cost of it. I'd guess the cover that comes with classic car policies is quite basic, get you home on a flatbed kind of stuff.

Congrats on the purchase by the way.
