What is considered a Classic Car?

Classic Car Insurance policies are aimed at vehicles aged 20 years or over. As normal motor policies may not offer adequate cover for your classic, we aim to offer a specialist policy that suits your motor. 

  • Agreed value
  • Salvage retention rights
  • European travel cover of up to 90 days
  • Irish & European breakdown and accident recovery, including Homestart
  • Up to 15% off for membership of a recognised owners’ club (excludes optional extras and premium finance)
  • €130,000 legal expenses cover in the event of an accident which was not your fault

Motor Legal Expenses cover 

Though it’s something we hope you’ll never need to use, Motor Legal Expenses cover offers reassurance that, if you are caught up in an accident, you’ll have cover for up €130,000 worth of legal fees if the incident wasn’t your fault.

Get moving again with Breakdown Cover for your classic car

With Irish & EU breakdown cover in place for your pride and joy, you’ll have support you can call on in the event of vehicle failure. Our policy covers cars of all ages for up to six call outs per year and includes Homestart too.

What is Agreed Value?

If you suffer the total loss of your classic car, most insurers will only pay you the market value of your vehicle. In some cases, this amount will be far lower than what you feel the classic car may actually be worth. The extra hassle of negotiating a settlement is something that Agreed Value can help you to avoid.

Agreed Value gives the opportunity for us to agree what your classic car is worth at the start of your cover. If your vehicle then becomes a total loss during your policy, we will pay out the agreed value (less any applicable excesses) – making the process far smoother for you.

What are salvage retention rights?

If your classic car is a total loss but it’s covered on an Agreed Value basis, you may have the option to purchase the remaining salvage at the amount your classic would be worth in its damaged condition.
