Not owned a Nova for a few years now but i'm looking at getting one again to use as a bit of a toy in the summer :d

Whats the best way to go about insuring something like this? Just regular insurance or can I get some sort of classic car policy ?

I've got 8 or 9 years NCB but there all on my daily driver. Done a few quotes but i'm looking at £800 for a GTE / GSI :(

Generally i've found the cheapest quote youll get will be a classic policy.

I pay £115 for my SR.

That's fooking expensive to say you have 8 or 9 years NCB.

How many miles per year is that for Simon? Seems cheap, saying that you probably live in a decent area lol

Quick replies :-o

I had a quote of £250 which is good enough for me on a 1300sr. Not got the best postcode sadly !

I pay £159 on my 1.3 SR with 3000 miles, my postcode isn't great, but not the worst either i guess...... I'm with Footman James i think they are called.

Thanks for the replies, looks like i'll try a limited mileage policy.

Just need to sort out my 106 GTi now, not moved for a year and trying to arrange temp insurance to get it on the road to sell is proving to be a nightmare :mad:

Have you tried Sky? I have mine as a second car with them, so limited miles, but they mirror the NCB from the Celica. Pay £400-odd a year with the V6.

Also as above, Footman James are good for classic policies.
