Good evening folks!
I have been lurking around on here for a while and have been waiting to get insured on my Lomax. MSM insurance used to insure young people as long as they have held a full licence for one year. As this time is now aproaching I contacted MSM to see if I could get insured and they have said their policy has now changed to over 21's only. I'm currently 19. For a little more info- Lomax 223 tricycle based on a 1981 citroen dyane 602cc opposed twin air cooled 29bhp its always garaged and will be doing less than 4k miles a year it's on an "x" 1981 plate. Now, heres the million dollar question. Are there any companies that are willing to insure people under 21? If not will i be able to put it on a classic policy? I am away at uni for most of the year but my dad takes it out most weekends to keep it running sweet (thats the excuse i get anyway)

When I rung flux a couple of months ago I'm fairly sure they said for kit cars it was 25 but im not 100%. They definately don't insure under 21's though as I would have remembered.

1.8 VVC 160 GTM Libra... I'm 19.. with Adrian Flux. MSM tried but couldn't match it, even after they came down considerably from their original price.

Thats interesting. I'll have to try them again this coming week. They wouldn't insure me last summer...

Do they think it's some sort of bike engined rocket because it's a small capacity maybe?

Not too sure tbh. When i rang them up in the summer they said that they couldn't inure anyone on kit cars under the age of 21. I guess as MSM have dropped out of that particular market though they may have changed their policy to fill a gap in the market although it does seem a little bit odd. I will give them a bell this week and report back with the outcome.
