I'm guessing any porsche more than ten years old, so you are currently looking at the last 964 cars and earlier. As for how much and what performance? how long is a piece of string?

Does anyone on here have a porsche on a classic car policy?

Are Classic Car Insurance companies bothered if the car is heavilly track-biased? I mean, will they refuse to insure you if you've got something like a 964RS or a 968CS M030 with a roll cage in it, uprated brakes, Michelin Pilot Sport Cups etc?

My '91 Cup Car is on AON's Classic Marques Policy for £400, 10% of value excess on track and 0.01% + tax per track day. 5,000 mile limit.

To qualify for this policy, the car MUST be garaged and at least a second car.

But, I've been with them for YEARS and I believe new business on a similar car would be about £1200-1300.

Yup. My 964RS is on a classic policy, limited miles, with mods.

I have a 964 C2 (LHD) on classic car insurance limited to 3.5K. miles - £350 quid. Not bad considering 3 points (this year), a "full air bag" accident last year, and the fact I have not insured a car for the last 7 years - company car you understand. However I do live in deepest darkest Wiltshire and am an old git (43)

Yep! My 993 is on AON`s Modern Classic policy, limited mileage, garaged and agreed value. Also AON has a carry-over policy, for unused miles!

My old 911 3.2 Carrera was on the same and was much, much cheaper. I think that they calculate the policy cost according to your declared value. But if you get over about £20K you need a (PCGB) valuation.

They will also allow you to 'buy' more miles if you think you are going to exceed the stated limit, -can't be fairer, can it?

1980 911 3.3 Turbo - second car, garaged, unlimited miles. 34 years old, clean license, one accident in last three years (50/50 - it was her fault actually but it's pointless arguing with an insurance company).

Living in Essex just outside M25.

£225 per year fully comp. AON Classic.
