If you can do with 5k miles a year or less..Pete Best if your in the MGCC is your best bet.My '54 plate TF 135 on a 3k miles "classic" policy with £50 voluntary excess was £130 this year and that includes AA breakdown!!
Plus if i go over the miles for approx.another £30 i can up it to the 5k limit..

They covered my TF which i paid £900 for, I wrote it off and they paid out £1,900, their Abingdon scheme is underwritten by Hiscox who are one of the best insurance companies the U.K. With one the of the best claims handling services. I still only pay about £150 which with the free AA breakdown cover which I've used twice it really is a no brainier...look no further...

Try TopCashback Compare if the above doesn't give you the price you'd like. They consistently beat the best quotes I get by the ~10% cashback they give me. I wouldn't bother if it would only save £10-15, but I'm not that lucky. When I insured the F through them they gave me 40 quid and free breakdown cover, as well as the best price I could find.

Has to be a Peter Best. My premium renewal which arrived last week has actually gone down which must be a first!
