im doing up a 1983 mini city e 998. just wondered how much insurance will be when/if i ever get it finished! is there anybody else with simular age/ claims that could shed some light. it would only be a second car used for fun at the weekends so i thought low milage classic insurance would be the way to go

I would have thought verry cheap dependant on if stored in a garrage or not. Dont think youd have to worrie about cost much since its only a 998 and a city e.
on a classic with limmited mileage could be under £100 a year for you



Mines a 998cc 1988 city E to however its my first car parked on street im 17 footman james were verry cheap for me TPFT just under £900 a year. cost same as my car did.

i just done a thing on go compare with my dad in the insurance as a named driver with £100 excess at £3343.62 how the hell did you get a quote that cheap!!!!!

I'm 42, missus is 40. Both have clean licences and no claims. Cost £127 for both of us. 998cc - mods declared, unlimited mileage (I asked for a 6k limit but it was no more for unlimited) with Footman James. No claims discount doesn't always come into it with classic insurance. Biggest factors are the area where you live and if the car is garaged/on drive/on street at night.

All of these online compare insurance things are crap, search more specifically for what you want. It's what I did. I reckon I got about 30+ quotes before finally finding this one!

Oh I forgot to mention, I also get £100 in vouchers for thomas cook paying towards my holiday to turkey next year so it only really cost me £470
