insuring a mk1 20v turbo

just would like to know how you guy go about insuring your motors. If you remember i posted about a mk1 golf gti that i found in a garage. after 2 months of talking to the dvla i got the owners detail. i now have all the paper work for the car and now its time to put plans into action. Im gonna s3 the mk1. but just would like to no how u go about getting insurance with a car like that. and is it still classed as a classic as it will be a summer toy?????

I dont think there is a definative answer to that. Insurance companies that i have spoke to have all had different requirements and policies.  You really need to call a few insurers because as helpful as club members are unless someone works at a brokers we wont know all the answers.

Footman James insured mine under classic everything declared

I did the S3 conversion, insured with Adrian flux all mods declared Inc increased power no problems and quite cheap

guys thanks very much great info as allways for them mk1 crew. so u can still have it as classic insureance and have the mod

Yarp.

Raul that mk1 g60 look lush. have u taken any build pics?

HIC quoted me for my Mk1 even though its not finshed, all mods declared, agreed value etc
was cheap! not much more than my standard 1.9 diesel Ibiza!
