[Matt @ Surrey Hills Motor Group]

seeing as the insurance is due on a couple of my cars i'm looking into "Multi Classic Car" policies.

HIC advertise it on their site - but dont offer it!!
Tradex dont do agreed valuations!
places like Admaril wont touch classic cars!!

does any one out there have a policy that covers more than one CLASSIC car, and if so who are you using??

Heritage motor Insurance.They are also online with free quotes.
I am not with them but told they are good by others with more than one car.

I have got two minis registered with HIC although one is registered as a SORN project with a set value. Good Luck. Matt

I'm with Roadrunner (motor trade) and have a policy with Royal Sun Alliance.

They can cover anyhting you have (and I mean anything) and are very reasonable, price wise.

Huey & Rocky are insured comprehensively with Adrian Flux under their classic mini policy, and Mrs T & I are insured to drive either car. Plus we get something for being members of a mini club and I think membership of tmf also helps (must check that).

Dad is with Footman James for Classic Cars

Hes got the 2x Consuls, 2x Mercedes and the Campervan insured on one policy - don't think its much either to be honest.

Limited mileage too.

I did 2 separate quotes on Admiral - one for a Golf GT TDi and the other for a 1986 998 City.

In total, they came to £550.




I then thought that I might as well see if I could save any money on a multicar policy on Admiral...

Total?


£1700



So I went with the single policy for the Golf and went elsewhere for the mini.


When I came to renew for the Golf ... I cancelled the policy and took out a NEW one with exactly the same company (Admiral) and EXACTLY the same details (Infact, it was literally a carbon copy on confused.com ...

Saved £150 on the renewal price!!

The service is very bad. They suck new customers in with cheap premiums, but it's a false economy. They never updated the MID on time for me, which led to me being in cars that would flag up as uninsured. They never reply to e-mails and are thoroughly rude and unhelpful if you ever manage to get through to them on the phone.
To top it off, they let my policy run for 4 months until they decided the Porsche I had declared with them from day 1 was not covered and demanded £££'s extra for the time I'd had it on the road. This is understandable with high-risk vehicles but leaving it for ages and then threatening to cancel my policy with no refund is robbery.. basically a very good way of screwing more money out of you.

Avoid.
