I heard some rumors of the 300ZX being eligible for classic insurance?? is this true? does anyone know where i can get some insurace at a reasonable price?

I am just about to buy a 300zx ... im 26 without any no-claims

yes the 300ZX is classed as a classic car - probably because of the heritage back to the Datsun 240Z. Do a search on the forum for insurance and you'll find several threads about finding the best insurance for you and your Z. (being under 30 and having zero no-claims may be a bit tough on you tho mate :( )

 

oh, and welcome to the club. :)

hi mate try carole nash for your insurance,i'm over 30 but put zero no claims on the z and 6000 miles per year and it cost me £256 is does help if the z is not your main car

hi mate try carole nash for your insurance,i'm over 30 but put zero no claims on the z and 6000 miles per year and it cost me £256 is does help if the z is not your main car

Also if its a uk car you have, try first alternative, good deals, imported car try norwich union IMPORT car insurance found through google sponsored links, they were dead reasonable. :cool:

i found with carole nash dude my mate's z is a import same year and cost £2 per year more than mine

IIRC you don't need any no claims if the car is going to be insured under a Classic Policy.

Alan.......

looking at spec have any of you told them your car is modified? Usually makes a massive difference. i found elephant.co.uk to be one of the cheapest, plus you can taylor your cover to your needs. compared them to Houghtons out o Z mag. Almost £200 cheaper a year. Elephant quoted me £445, 8000 miles car worth £8k. 34 years old + 6years no claims.

Give them a try. :shock:

By the way you dont get any no calims on classic insurance. found out the other day wen it cam to renew my dads chrylser le baron (1989) insurance that i realised it was meant to have 1 yr no claims and it had 'nil' so phoned then up and ask y my dad had no claims. which then they tell me classic insurance u get no claims. and classic insurance tend to be more expensive.

last year: norwich union, £860 (classic) fully comp.

dis year: Adirun flux, £383 3rd party and theft (car is only for weekends do 3rd will do good.)

And car is a 2.2 GTC Chrysler Lebaron German Import (LHD) Convertable

So not bad.
