The cost of car insurance will vary from owner to owner. Vintage vehicle enthusiasts tend to take better care of their cars than other drivers and may drive them less often, which could mean you pay a lower premium than you do for your regular car.

We take various factors into account when coming up with your classic car insurance quote:

  • Your age, location, and employment
  • Where you store your Suzuki when not in use
  • Your voluntary excess
  • Driving history
  • Modifications to your Suzuki model
  • Annual mileage
  • The optional extras you choose

Been in an accident in your Suzuki Jeep that wasn't your fault? One of our surveyors will come out to assess the damage and check whether you're eligible to file a case. Don't forget to get the information of other drivers, passengers and witnesses present to help your case.

In instances where your Suzuki has been stolen, you'll need to report the theft to the police, who'll give you a unique crime reference number. We need this to proceed with your claim.

If you have any questions regarding how claims work or anything else about your classic car insurance policy with us, don't hesitate to call.

For tax purposes, cars don't get classic status until they're 40 years old, while HMRC considers them heritage at 15 years of age and with a valuation of £15,000 or more. Some competitors won't insure cars until they're at least 20 years old, but that's not the case with us.

We believe that certain cars, like your beloved Suzuki, were built for classic status. That’s why we insure both heritage models and modern classics when used in the true sense of the word. 

Protect your cherished Suzuki with the specialists.
