Rich.crump Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Just bought an Audi RS6 2003. Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions of who to insure it with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Hello Richard, Perhaps you could let the forum know what this car will be used for - as your main vehicle, or as an occasional use car? If occasional use, what your anticipated annual mileage will be. Also whether it will be garaged or not while not in use. Kind regards, Gareth.

Rich.crump Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 It will be left in the driveway and just for domestic driving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 So this will be used on a regularly frequent basis - possibly as a daily driver car, and it’s unlikely to be practical for you to restrict the annual mileage to say 3,000 to 6,000 miles? I ask, since if you were, it might (only might, since it is less than the normally required minimum 20 years old) be possible to get this onto a classic car insurance policy. These policies do not depend on having a ‘spare’ no claims bonus, but neither does it generate one. You can also insure the car on an agreed value basis, but insurers will expect that the car will not be a daily driver. If these requirements do not meet your intended use, then you can effectively forget about the classic car policy possibilities. If that is the case, as I see it, you will simply need go down the normal comparison website route and obtain a cover which suits your needs. I believe there is an insurance contact on this forum, so you could start there. Hope some of this may be helpful to point you towards what may not be possible and what your alternatives are. Perhaps you could keep the forum posted on how you get on. Kind regards, Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In simple terms you will pay more than you thought and get less than you expected! There is no normal so the simplest thing to do is to register with confused.com or moneysupermarket or one of the others - put in all your details and see what comes back. That will let you see the range if costs along with potential benefits such as hire cars, AA insurance, reduced excess, etc. Normally the websites offer you some sort of incentive to buy through them. If you are registered with them then your renewal process becomes very easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Hello Emil, Everything depends on your personal situation, the use to which the car will put, your ‘insurance record’ etc. Please read my basic principles of classic car insurance if ( in caps) it would be applicable to you. Just let the forum know if you think it may, and we can give you some contacts. If it doesn’t, then just follow Shytot’s advice and pass everything through the comparison sites as most people do. As he says, ensure you add on the extras you require for your particular needs, rather than just going for the cheapest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, Dan. Thank you very much! It's always nice to see that someone wants to help. I asked that question because I don't have any insurance, and I was looking into it. And I've always been told that this !Removed! is costly, so I'm contemplating on it. I'll need to check the websites shytot recommended to see if I can pay or not.

Magnet Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Hello Emil, I’m unsure whether you don’t have insurance because you don’t have a car, so would suggest you follow Dan’s suggestion and have a chat with the Adrian Flux folks, who will be able to guide you through the basics. I’m sure you will know that if you have never had car insurance then the costs to insure any car can be expensive to start. Kind regards, Gareth.

And again, I just finished reading an article that says you can get discounts on your insurance if you have a good driving record and no license points. It's here; https://www.moneyexpert.com/car-insurance/no-claims-discounts/. But it seems the discount only applies to old customers and not people in my category. But I'll try to ask other insurance guys for clarification. I sent you PM dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
