SALVAGE RETENTION

Keep the salvage of your car for repair or parts in the event of a total loss, provided the car is not deemed ‘end of life’.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

What is agreed value?

Agreed value means that the insurer has agreed a valuation for your vehicle and this is fixed for the policy term. If you had to make a claim and you didn’t have agreed value, the insurer would look at the market rate for replacement of your car at the time of the claim for guidance on the pay-out amount. This wouldn’t take into account any unique features or the history of the vehicle, or its value when you first insured it.

Can I get agreed value from the start of my classic car insurance policy?

You can insure a car before you buy it, but you ideally should have at least committed in writing to make the purchase, or paid a deposit. You can set insurance to start from the date you collect or take delivery of the vehicle.

Can I insure a classic car before I buy it?

You can insure a car before you buy it, but you ideally should have at least committed in writing to make the purchase, or paid a deposit. You can set insurance to start from the date you collect or take delivery of the vehicle. If you take out breakdown cover, there is usually a 24-hour exclusion period right at the beginning of cover, during which you cannot make a claim.

Can I get laid up cover?

Yes, we offer cover for laid up vehicles / classics that are SORNed. You can switch your cover from laid-up to road cover once your car is ready to be driven again. Laid up cover can include free agreed value, if the vehicle is complete, and covers your classic for accidental damage, fire and theft.
