I'm swapping out of classic cars for the first time in 10 years and wondered if anyone here has managed to get a conventional insurer to translate a no-claims history into a bonus.

You'd think it would be a no-brainer - I haven't binned a car, or claimed even once in that time, so therefore I should be good for a discount. But no - it seems insurers won't accept that and I'll be charged the same amount as someone who hasn't driven in 10 years.

Can anyone supply a name?

Thanks

hmmm, i think you'll find most classic car insurance is issued on the proviso you have another normal car/snotter to use every day, and as such classic car insurance does does not accrue no claims, as your snotter insurance does

thats not to say that a classic cant be insured to be used as your main car, but this generally wont be "classic car insurance" for the reasons listed above

I've never needed another vehicle to get classic insurance.
