Why choose Sterling NI for classic car insurance?

Agreed value cover

Whether you’ve restored your vehicle or kitted out the interior with modern features, we know you’ve invested a lot of time, dedication and money into your vehicle. That’s why we offer agreed valuation cover, where we work with you to agree on the value of the vehicle at the start of the policy.

This means that if your cherished car is involved in an accident or loss, you are able to claim the vehicle’s pre-agreed value rather than its current market value at the time of the loss.

Frequently asked questions

When does a car become a classic for insurance?

This depends on who you ask. Although most consider cars that are over 40 years of age a classic, we also consider more modern vehicles as classic cars. If, for instance, your car has been discontinued, is in limited supply or has a cult following, this could make it eligible for a classic car insurance policy.

Does my car qualify for classic car insurance?

Even if you own an old car and don’t consider it a classic, you could benefit from a classic car insurance policy. If you’re in doubt, it’s a good idea to call us for a quote and we can look into your case.

Is classic car insurance more affordable?

Classic car insurance can be more affordable than regular cover, though this will depend on a number of factors, including whether it’s a high-performance classic and how it’s used.

 

Taking out a policy specifically for classic cars has a number of other benefits too. For starters, it can include extras that are more applicable to the risks involved with owning a car of your stature, such as classic breakdown cover and agreed value insurance.
