Should It Be Re-Branded??
V8MoneyPit:
I'm not sure the question was whether the Disco 1 deserves 'classic status', more should we call it something different...... I'm sure Lee calls his something else sometimes when it breaks..... probably not repeatable here :lol:
lee celtic:
OOOHHH YYEESS I call it all sorts!!! ;)
The reason I started this is guy at work pointed out that my disco is 20 years old next year and had I thought of classic insurance now, I know that no company is going to touch me with classic insurance with the mods on the car then that got me thinking about classic cars in general how old does it have to be to become a classic??
And does age make it a car classic at all ( I've worked on a few old cars that are definitely not classic)
thoughts???

Age and interest by people makes a vehicle a classic. Otherwise all the ancient horrors of BL would be Classics too, but they're not are they?

When Firebond existed, both my 110 (1983) and Suzuki Samurai (1990) were insured under a limited mileage classic policy with agreed value. Both were fairly heavily modified.
My 1991 Mecedes Benz 190E was also going to be insured on a classic policy with AON (who now own Firebond) until they quoted me £400 :shock: It is now on my works policy and cost me the grand sum of zero Pounds :dance:
When I had a 1988 2CV, that was also on a classic policy.
It doesn't appear to be purely based on the age of the vehicle when it comes to insurance.
Helps to be a member of a club too. Mud Club works to get a discount..... I've used it!
