Gents,

I'm toying with the idea of buying a track shed and due to lack of decent storage/trailer/towing car I'm looking to get a road legal one and drive it to tracks myself.

However, a major stumbling block is insuring it, which is coming out at the same price as the car itself!

Whats the best way to approach this? Some kind of multicar policy? Are there special limited-mileage policies? I don't expect to do more than 2000 miles a year and thats being very generous.

depends how many track days your going to do,
i insure my track car (mr2)with tempcover.com
fri,sat,sun cost me £40
this is the economical way of doing it, if your only going on 5-6 track days.
anymore then your close to paying a full year, i am lucky i have off road parking so insurance is not an issue when im not using it.

its easy to setup, 10 mins on line then print your own policy, job done!

My MR2 has a classic policy. No NCB needed.

My CRX is insured as a 2nd car, never used for work and limited to 3000 miles a year, all this helps in reducing the premium.

That's a really great fact, maybe you should start a thread on little known, but great facts.

iPhone went mad and stuck post in completely unrelated thread. Very odd.

Tempcover.com says it doesn't cover modified vehicles? Not ideal for a track day car!

I've got mine on 3rd party only traders policy. Car not worth a lot so not worth paying out for fully comp. It covers modded cars so don't have to declare any changes.
