Hi Guys,

Just wondering where all the peeps who own conversion motors are getting their insurance and what can be expected in premium terms?

(cars that have been declared as converted please).

Look forward to hearing from you all.


Cheers

I'm 36, 10+years NCD, all mods declared, 10k annual mileage with commuting and it's about £500 from what I remember.

So many variables though mate, your premium could be 10 times that, on the other hand it could be cheaper than mine

M50 but...

Get ready to cry.

27, 6yr NCD, 5k a year mileage. Garaged. All mods declared.

£350.

I do live in an area where no-one actually knows what crime is. Even the pikeys have long beards and ride about on a horse and cart, dressed like they're from the 19th century :D

Would my £139 make you all cry then? Classic policy, 5k miles, agreed value & all mods declared. Very good postcode and not my main car. Zero no claims required for this policy, but none accrued either.

Won't matter to me, as soon as I utter the words "stripped interior" the price seems to double.
