Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted August 4, 2011 Supporters Share Posted August 4, 2011 Matt, how the hell have you insured that? I'm sure you're a similar age as me! I tried to fine either an old (pre 1971 for tax exemption and awesome plates) VW Beetle or 2CV and both at 1.2ltr and 1ltr cost over £3500 to insure for ONE YEAR! I COULD BUY A SODDING CAW M134 TO KEEP PERMANENTLY AND GET MORE USE OUT OF IT THAN BLOODY INSURANCE!!!!!!!!!! also, 'Miss David Doodson' is only £300 cheaper to insure than 'Mr David Doodson' for those wondering about M-F insurance.

AF-UK Founding Member Deva Posted August 4, 2011 AF-UK Founding Member Share Posted August 4, 2011 Insurance companies don't like old cars.. quotes are based on the safety of the car etc. too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted August 4, 2011 Supporters Share Posted August 4, 2011 Ah yes, but old cars are cool. Bits for them are cheap and plentiful for 2CV's and Beetles, so sourcing parts and doing work myself/with help from dad is for the most part really easy. It's either a small old car or a large estate/van. nothing else will really suit me very well - or be useful to my needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
