hi All, can anyone tell me what age for a mini to qualify for classic insurance
I know it's 1973 for the tax, help needed please.

THIS might give you an idea, but I suspect that as with most insurance things, policies vary from company to company.

Basically, if your car is 10 years old, it qualifies. There are however "modern classic" policies which I suspect (but don't know) cover cars of a younger age.

Time to break out the phone book methinks.....

thanks, the car is 1990 mini cooper 1275cc carb model
I am a old git and had a quote of £115 would that be about right
I have a second car and got full no claims

I'm 25 now driving a 1275 sprite with bucket seats, body kit, stage one and some more stuff all told to performance direct and they are charging £350 full comp with protected no claims. Tis the first time a could afford to pay it off for the year. Should have got a standard 998 on something like a F plate as it would have cost a very good £150odd for the year.

The general rule of thumb for a classic car policy is car over 10 years old or No longer in production.

I love classic car insurance...!!
