I am 36 now and I have had my car for nine years. So I bought it when I was 27...

As for insurance at the moment I pay € 270.00 which is about GBP 180.00 annually on an agreed value and unlimited mileage, but this will change to a limited mileage policy of 7,500 kms for € 93.00 or GBP 62.00 per year.

Age 34 years. Based in North Hampshire, Car is garaged in a rented council lock-up about half a mile from my house.

I pay £740 a year fully comp for a classic policy (i.e. NCB not used/needed), BUT, thats for a group/fleet policy on the lancia, the m5, the m3 and the MK.1 rocco. I get 12K miles a year to split across the cars as I want. Agreed value on all of them as well.

Very happy with this. I was with Aon for several years, but they have started to take the P**s recently. They did haggle in the end, but their overall best quote was still a £100 quid more and was considerably less flexible about the mileage (less miles overall as well at 10k)

New insurance outfit is called Classicline

I'm on my second Evo2 E30 M3. 6 years in total - 2.5 years with the current beasty....

I am insured through AON and the policy is with Royal Sun Alliance I think.. It’s only insured for private use and no commuting (I work from home anyway).

26, and I've had mine 3 years now.

Insurance has just been renewed at £440 which is actually up on last year by £60!   Had my car for 3 years now and have covered 50,000km in that time so the mileage is now around 300,000km.

Hi all

61 now, just got my buss pass not that I'll use it.

Got mine in Sept. 98 after my E21 323 broke against a straw bale. It's a 1989 German inport which started life with cats, gone now, and I have had it chipped. Love it to death and for insurance I am with AON limited to 5000 pa but with a rollover facility. The last 4 years the premium has been constant @ £ 274 and have agree value of £ 9,000.

Do own maintenance where possible and the car has done 180,000kms.

Compete in hill climbs and sprints.

27 as of the other day, had it for 10 months now and paid £390 FC agreed value 5000 miles with Peter Best. Only people I could find that would give me the time of day, being under 30, but there seem to be plenty of other suggestions above!

jpboost, who did you get that policy with?
