Classic car insurance generally covers accidental damage, fire, theft and third party liability, similar to standard policies, but with features tailored to older or collectible vehicles. These
may include agreed value cover, limited mileage terms and specialist repair considerations. Because classic cars are often maintained differently from everyday vehicles, the policy structure reflects this.
Peter Best Insurance Services can help arrange cover that recognises the vehicle’s condition, usage and collector value.
A car is usually considered a classic based on its age, rarity, condition and how it is used, although there is no single definition across all insurers.
Many vehicles over 15 to 20 years old may qualify, particularly if they are well maintained and not used for daily driving. Insurers assess each vehicle individually.
Peter Best Insurance Services can help determine whether a vehicle meets classic criteria for specialist cover.
Agreed value insurance allows the owner and insurer to set a fixed value for the vehicle at the start of the policy.
If the car is declared a total loss, this agreed figure is used for settlement rather than market value. This is particularly important for classics where condition and provenance affect worth.
Peter Best Insurance Services can help arrange agreed value policies with appropriate supporting evidence.
Classic cars can sometimes be less expensive to insure, but this depends on how they are used and stored. Many are driven less frequently and kept securely, which can reduce risk in the eyes of insurers.
However, values, repair costs and parts availability can also influence premiums.
Each policy is assessed individually based on the vehicle and owner profile.
