Hi

I have 'classic' status on my 1990 325i Cab with Carol Nash. It's a limited mileage (5,000) comprehensive policy. I have yet to take the pics and stuff for the Agreed Value bit.

Remember, it must be a second car to qualify.

I use Carole Nash for my E30 M3 vert.....classic car insurance, 1500 miles per year limit,fully comp with 3 points on my license + my other half on the policy and it also has full breakdown cover in the UK + Europe....all in for £360 with an excess of £150 :cool: They check various companies and give you the best price, just remeber to give them a price you would be happy with when they ask you what's the best quote you'vre had so far :wink: Only thing they insist on is that you have regular use of another car to qualify :?

Indeed I have found Lancaster to be inexpensive and helpful - their site is a breeze to get a quote on also.

I've used Carole Nash as well, and also AON who were similarly good.

Direct Line gave me my full no claims on my 325 as I have on my main car, so the insurance dropped to £235 fully comp with £150 excess. May be worth a look.

I went with Carol Nash for the Six.

Wanted agreed value of £12k which they initially agreed but then changed their mind & said £9k as that was the highest price for sale at the time. Pointed them to Munich Legends where I got mine. They had a few starting at £13k up to £24k. Carol Nash agreed to the £12k value after that.

However, I don't have a lot of confidence in them after that.
