Hi

Please can you tell me which is the best insurance to go with for insuring an FB.

The reason for asking is a friend is trying to insure his 1st gen but not having much success.  It is on the road but will not be garaged.  Post code area is Surrey, RH8.

If someone could advise which is the best insurance company to go with that would be great

my elford turbo is with Footman James  (0843 357 1917) on their classic car policy and I pay £155.00 with a 3000 mls a year limit.
I\'m 46 with 6 points so not too bad really. My standard series 3 car last year was only £112... but I only had 3 points then!
I\'ve got my Jag insured with them too and they are very good... used them for the last 10 years...

Thanks Ian

But he is has been waiting to hear from Footman James as follows:-

After almost three weeks my present score is 5 e-mails and one aborted phone call which I eventually hung up after being abandoned in the void for a very long time.

"Lancaster" (ie. the old MG Owners Club insurance company). Elford Turbo, £3000 agreed value, 60 years old, 6 points (oops...), 6000 miles a year, £100 excess, includes commuting and breakdown recovery and with a no claims discount building (unusual in a classic car policy but important for me as I have had a company car for a long time and might be about to lose it...) = £155.
