When is a vehicle defined a classic car?
For insurance purposes, a classic car is defined as any vehicle that’s more than 15 years old and worth at least £15,000.
In terms of the car tax exemption, a vehicle that’s more than 40 years old is a classic.
However, most hardened enthusiasts believe a true ‘classic’ should boast a timeless design, nostalgic value, a technological advancement – or all of the above.
What classic car models can we cover?
Bespoke beautiful vehicles often require specialist classic car insurance because of the increased repair costs associated with driving such a unique brand.
Although this level of cover can prove difficult for standard market insurers, Nowell & Richards can offer competitive rates for:
- Veteran Classic Car Insurance – any vehicle made before World War One.
- Vintage Classic Car Insurance – any car manufactured before 1930.
- Post Vintage Classic Car Insurance – Vehicles made between 1930 and 1945.
- Classic Car Insurance - Any desirable vehicle that is no longer made.
If you’re still unsure whether your model is a classic, call 01785 255514 for an insurance quote tailored to your needs.
