Insurance advice

Right. two cars, both used regular. Insurance is a pig to find that will cover both with my full no claims. Only found about two companies that do this so pay a bit more than I probably would if only had one. The usual answer is they will only cover one with the no claims & other one has to start at zero.
At moment I am with Highway who are cheap & nasty but just got renewal thru for Willy & it has gone up Ã‚Â£50 despite being 40 now & no claims ever!
Anyone else cover two with full no claims on both got some names of companies please? Anyone saves me some money gets sweets!

You should consider insuring your Mini on a classic insurance policy? If you browse the Mini magazine there are various companies that will insure a Mini up to a 2000 registration on a classic policy, and they will usually give you a good deal on modifications and anunal mileage. You'll find most of which can offer classic and normal policies together.

There are more, I just don't have a magazine at hand to check!

adrian flux should be able to do you a good deal if the mini is insured as a classic with a limited amount of miles

I did no think they would do that on a Mini that is only 7yrs old? Will try though.
Thanks

HIC for me too, but they are just brokers and I think I am insured with Highway.

Liquorice is my favourite.

Any pictures of the Cooper Sport and any modifications? I was into them, plus my girlfriend drives a BRG '97 Cooper with the porcelain green leather interior.

Footman james insure my 300BHP Mk1 MR2 on a classic policy, its Ã‚Â£280! Try them

I had the Lotus insured with Footman James.
The reason they are so cheap is because they limit the mileage and don't insure you to drive other cars. Just something worth thinking about.
