S Series, 5000 miles, Brit car insurance......£250.

Sounds a good deal to me.....give them a call.

I know it is Brit insurance since they sponsor the England cricket team.....come' on England Versus West Indies tonight !!!!

I'm 25 now so might be able to get classic car insurance but I'm not that hopeful my insurance is going to drop much.

Insurance companies hate us young'uns hehe

Ah another insurance thread...
Classicline, £1600.00, 300 miles garaged getmecoat

I know I know...but I'm only just older than the car (22).

Was advised MDM were cheaper for a chap I met who was 2 years older than me and down to £800. Will investigate in August when it's due. As for now I'm going back to not thinking about it thanks biggrin

At least I win insurance premium top trumps?!

300 miles garaged?! I'm assuming there should be another zero!

1600 is pretty good actually, I had a Volvo 850 worth £100 when I was 22 which cost £1200 to insure!

I got the S when I was 23 and my insurance was ~£700 with 7500 miles on a driveway with MSM on their kit car policy.

Oh and yes I think you win!!
