Vintage Car / Historic Car / Classic Car
Lancaster Insurance appreciates that owners of Vintage Cars, Historic Cars and Classic Cars are passionate about their vehicles. We have specialised in arranging tailored insurance since 1984 and are recognised as one of the market leaders in providing car insurance for vintage, historic and classic vehicles.
Classifications of classic vehicles:
- Vintage Car - A ‘vintage car’ is commonly defined as a vehicle built between the start of 1919 and the end of 1930.
- Historic Car - The DVLA has a ‘historic vehicle’ taxation class. If your historic car was constructed or manufactured prior to 1973 then it will be exempt from the payment of road tax. You will need to make the necessary arrangements regarding this exemption directly with the DVLA.
- Classic Car – The definition of a classic car differs greatly amongst individuals and organisations alike. In general terms it refers to a car which is over the age of 20 years.
The insurance policies we offer have been refined through listening to our clients and building long term relationships with our insurance partners and classic car clubs.
