Who will insure me?

Hi all
Was looking at changing the Car, for a newer model a 1992, but Lancaster said it was not classic as not 25 years plus, so they would not cover it….
They contacted the undrewriters who would insure it for an extra £40.00, but limit it only to SDP and not commuting.
I use my Cabby as a summer car and just like my polo use it to drive work and back and out at the weekends.
It seems pointless insuring it just to drive on a Sunday.
Any reccomendations?
cheers

Cheers fella,
Mine is an 1988 at the moment and am with lancaster under a classic policy, but if I change to a 1992 then it will cost me slightly more, as they are saying the new car would not be classic as it'sunder 25 years old, I argued that mine currently is under 25 years old too, but they would only cover me for sdp and not commuting to work? I use the cabby all summer long to work and back etc, so seems pointless, just insuring it for sundays lol.

I got my insurance with adrian flux.

Cheapest i found.

Its worth ringing round, whats cheap for one may not be the same for someone else.

These are also good

it's a mine field.
I was with flux but they put my insurance up by 30% in a year????
It was £103.00 fully comp agreed etc etc. But they shot it up to £137.00 in one go.
Cannot remember what I paid with Lancaster off the top of my head, but it was obviously less.
seems silly to apply those restrictions.
Will have to shop around…
