I got £180 on Classic 1.5 years ago.

I didn't have to check the 'modified' box, unlike SOME cars on here lol.

Did they send you a free flat cap and some leather driving gloves with that?

180 greasy Euros, roadside recovery included.

Post Thu Mar 07, 2013 4:10 pm

£180 TPFT non classic.

£247 FC I think it was.

Not bad for 'Not available in Northern Ireland' insurance levels!

Amazingly the e36 M3 insurance also has dropped from about £800 to £300 this year. Guess being 35 does actually make a difference... officially not a young driver anymore it seems!

I paid a whisker under £300 in total for both E30's,but there again,the 'old fart' bit of the OP's post applies!

Post Thu Mar 07, 2013 4:16 pm

£240 under classic policy and breakdown cover included.

they don't have a separate class bracket for the mighty twin cam,it falls under standard 318i insurance

Is this for a standard policy or a classic? Also you'd be surprised the difference turning 25 will make

standered policy that is

Post Thu Mar 07, 2013 5:08 pm

£600 isn't bad for a 24 year old on a standard policy then

i think classic companies have a minimum age of 25 , or they can be funny about classic policy and a well below average yearly milage if its a younger persons only car (ie if your over 25 and its a 2nd car a classic policy is cheap)
