Over 70's Insurance
I'm sure that there's one or two of you out there in this category
My stepdad, who is 71, is currently looking for his first Porsche, probably going to be a 2.7 Boxster with a value of around £7k
It will be a second car
I just had a quick butchers on the Asset trust site and it says that the classic policies are for drivers 23 - 70
Just wondered if any of our older drivers have had any problems with classic insurance

Yes, he loved it, not even sure the turbos kicked inMartin & Kim 6853 wrote:So he didn't fancy the 996 turbo I saw him test driving then!!
Looks like we've found a cheap Boxster for him to run around in during the summer
A 2002 2.7 tip, a couple of wee scuffs and small dent but only paying £6k

Did look at a couple of 3.2's but popped in to have quick chat with Ray at Northway and he said much less chance of major issues with the 2.7.
Also I think that's plenty for someone who's been driving a 1.6 Civic for 10 years
Also a day out with Big John is on the cards for some driver training

Re: Over 70's Insurance
Back to the topic of this thread
Insurance, we got 3 reasonable quotes from Peter James, Adrian Flux and Asset Trust.
Original from AT included breakdown which wasn't needed as already with AA, cost £378
AF came in at 318 with a 300 mile policy no breakdown
went back to Paul at AT and without breakdown he has arranged cover for £310 with 5000 miles
