    Some are done ont he Vehicle model age... (the nova is 25 etc) some are done on the vehicle age...

    Most classic policies do require you to be 21, i was with Lancaster on the Manta and now ithe HIC on the Nova. I honestly don't know what age restrictiosn they have as I'm past the horrible insurance age just

    Depends on the insurer. HIC classified my Nova as a Classic when it was 15 years old.

    As for age, my friend had a classic car policy on his Mini at 17, again, i think it's insurer dependent!

    Yup, varies from company to company.

    Just ask for a second car/restricted mileage policy, those will be usually be "classic" policies.
