Upcoming birthday

My Contemporary SE Hi-line KV6 manual saloon came off the line week 9 2004 so somewhere towards the end of this February she (and her slightly later Tourer 'project' twin will (finally) qualify as Classics! The saloon is just coming up to 180K and I believe she's still on the ex-works clutch and (I've just discovered) she's fitted with the rear anti-roll bar which was supposed to have been deleted following the PPD two year earlier (perhaps it was included as part of the Sports Suspension SE option package - that's something no-one on here has been able to exactly define, another MGR 'mystery'?).
I've already posted about my recent 75% insurance premium hike so who are the best Classic insurance companies to try for a better deal, preferably those who offer a realistic valuation in case the worst ever happens.

Insurance is unique in each case , so it is a question of shopping around and finding a policy that suits you with appropriate service levels should you require them .

I can not say which is the best as we will all have different criteria , but I have extracted the following from two other car club sites :-

Footman James Ltd
Adrian Flux Insurance Services
Hagerty Classic Car Insurance
Peter Best Insurance Services

Chris Knott Insurance
