insurance quotes issues

anybody else getting daft classic car quotes

looking at getting a bmw 325td m reg 1993 but getting quotes at £900 im 44 yrs old
also quotes are asking for ncb which never applied before and some are stating car needs to be 25yrs and over and garaged ????

tried loads of companys,sureterm,lancasters,peter best,peterjames,footman james,adrian flux etc

Is the 325td classified as a classic car? I have heard that 25 yrs old is the age that most cars are classified as classics but I don't think some companies view the MK1 Golf as a classic car either.

Some classic inruers will askf ro a car to be garaged and most insist on limited mileage but not all. I assume you NCB is being used on another car?

I think the issue with your circumstances are that the car you are trying to insure as a classic isn't viewed as a classic by insurers yet??

Nothing with a "td" badge is ever going to be a classic

There's a difference between a classic car, and a car that's just old.

True mate. I think this is why it's not as cheap as perhaps it might be if it were regarded as such.
