I have today received information all about the scheme that will be published in the next Association Magazine - look out for it.
Nick Turley has done much of the spadework to bring this to fruition and is to be congratulated.
Deserves recognition when you think this is the average price I’m getting
Both my sister and I were able to get insurance on classics at the age of 17. In her case it was a Seven and in my case it was my A35. This would have been 11 years ago for her and 9 years ago for me-We went through an independent broker who was also an enthusiast and willing to do the leg work at the time. However, it wasn't cheap and came out at around £800/900 in my case. I can't remember precisely now. Once we were 18 we were both able to get a policy with RH, but I seem to remember we had to argue our cases pretty hard. However, the price was a lot lower.
So it was possible then, but far from ideal.
It's great to see people doing work like Nick to help with insurance, which is a minefield!
