Specialist vehicle insurance is designed for vehicles that do not fall under the category of standard cars, such as classic cars, modified cars, kit cars, and high-performance sports cars.

Coverage typically includes classic cars, vintage cars, modified cars, kit cars, imported cars, sports cars, campervans, and motorhomes.

When your vehicle is written off, your insurance company pays you the current value of the vehicle, instead of the cost of repairing it.

Your insurance company will decide if the vehicle should be written off or not.

An explanation of the categories of a vehicle write off are listed below:

• Category A - Cannot be repaired. The entire vehicle has to be crushed.
• Category B - Cannot be repaired. The body shell has to be crushed, but you can salvage other parts from it.
• Category C - Can be repaired but would cost more than the vehicles worth. You can use the vehicle again if it is repaired to a roadworthy condition.
• Category D - Can be repaired and would cost less than the vehicle’s worth, but other costs (such as transporting your vehicle) take it over the vehicle’s value. You can use the vehicle again if it’s repaired to a roadworthy condition.
• Category N - Can be repaired following non-structural damage. You can use the vehicle again if it’s repaired to a roadworthy condition.
• Category S - Can be repaired following structural damage. You can use the vehicle again if it’s repaired to a roadworthy condition.

Agreed value coverage ensures that the insurer and the policyholder agree on the value of the vehicle at the start of the policy. In the event of a total loss, this agreed amount will be paid out.

Yes, modified vehicles often require specialist modified car insurance because modifications can affect the vehicle's performance, safety, and value.

Factors include the type and value of the vehicle, its age, the extent of modifications, the intended use (e.g., daily use, shows, parades), and the driver's history and age.

Many specialist vehicle insurance policies offer discounts if you agree to a limited mileage cap, as less usage generally reduces the risk of claims.

Yes, most specialist vehicle policies include coverage for participation in shows, but it's important to confirm this with us when taking a policy out.

Laid-up or SORN (Statutory Off-Road Notification) insurance covers your vehicle while it's not being driven and is kept off the road. This coverage typically protects against theft, fire, and damage while stored.

Many specialist insurance policies offer European cover, allowing you to drive your vehicle in EU countries, but you should check the specifics with your insurer.

Salvage retention allows you to keep the remains of your vehicle if it's written off after an accident. This can be important for rare or valuable vehicles where parts may be hard to replace.

The agreed value is usually determined through an appraisal by a specialist or by providing evidence of the vehicle's value, such as photographs, receipts.

Yes, you can obtain insurance for a project car. This type of policy typically provides coverage while the vehicle is being restored or built.

Some insurers may have age restrictions or require a minimum amount of driving experience for certain types of specialist vehicles, especially high-performance or classic cars.

An agreed mileage limitation is a cap on the number of miles you can drive your vehicle annually, often in exchange for a lower premium. Exceeding this limit could affect your coverage.

While most specialist vehicle policies are designed for personal use, some insurers may offer coverage for business use, depending on the nature of the business and the vehicle.

Keeping your vehicle in a secure, locked garage can often result in lower premiums, as it reduces the risk of theft and damage compared to parking on the street.

We may require additional security measures such as alarms, immobilizers, tracking devices, or secure storage to lower the risk and qualify for coverage.

Yes, left-hand drive vehicles, often imports, can be insured under specialist vehicle policies, though they may have specific conditions or premiums.

The excess (the amount you pay towards a claim) for specialist vehicles can be higher or vary based on the vehicle's type, value, and modifications. Check your policy details for specific excess amounts.
