Performance Classic Car Insurance
Getting behind the wheel of a performance classic car is all you need to confirm that they just don’t make them like they used to. That’s why so many dedicated drivers have stuck with them over the years, despite the problems that sometimes come with getting them on the road.
Insurers will want to know a bit more about your driving experience and how you plan to protect your vehicle, particularly for higher-value models worth more than £100,000. However, at Carole Nash, we aim to make sure that finding suitable performance classic car insurance is hassle-free. That way, nothing will detract from the thrill of driving these incredible motors.
Now let’s find out more about insurance for performance classic cars and how Carole Nash can try to help you take out the cover you need.
To get suitable insurance on your performance classic car, you’ll need a policy that offers you protection and peace of mind whilst enjoying your ride. Depending on your chosen tier, insurance policies through Carole Nash may include::
- Salvage retention rights
- Club member discounts of up to 15%
- Agreed value
- Choose your own specialist repairer
Just like their drivers, all vintage performance cars are unique and it’s important that you find a policy that reflects how you plan to use your vehicle. There are a few different types of performance insurance:
- Laid up: If you don’t have any plans to take your vehicle out on the road for the foreseeable future, this could possibly be a suitable policy for you.
- Third-party: This form of performance classic car insurance only offers protection for any damage you cause to another party’s vehicle or property.
- Third-party, fire and theft: On top of third-party cover, this policy provides protection in the event of your vehicle being stolen or suffering fire damage.
- Comprehensive: The most robust level of performance classic car insurance, covering all of the above as well as insuring you for any accidental damage to your vehicle.
It’s very difficult to offer one set answer to this question. All performance cars are different, which means their premiums are too. Your performance car insurance quote is likely to vary based on a number of factors, such as the make and model of your vehicle, its age and how it is stored when not on the road, to name just a few.
To give you an idea, why not call us today and we’ll be able to provide a free, no-obligation performance classic car insurance quote in next to no time.
How might I affect the cost of my performance classic car insurance?
Vehicles like these are a joy to drive, offering a thrill that a standard family car just cannot provide. But the exceptional quality of these models doesn’t have to mean that your performance car insurance costs the earth. There are a few things you can do that might help improve the price of your premium:
- Use another car for daily journeys
- Maintain a low annual mileage, usually under 5,000 miles
- Keep your vehicle securely stored in a garage or specialist lock-up
