Classic vehicle insurance? Who With?

[TheWebDesignCompany]

Hi I just changed my insurance over on Adrian Flux with my old van (an electric vehicle) to my new van (as shown in my Avatar)
a 1972 MK1 Transit, and wanted to insure it as a classic vehicle. But was told that they do not have it on their database and was charged
around £700 for a years insurance fully comp with mileage limited to 2000 miles a year!!!

Thats insane, I was told that the person I bought it from had insured it for around £150 fully comp on a classic vehicle policy.
I need to get this sorted. Does anyone else have a mk1 or mk2 transit on a classic vehicle policy, and if so, who with and what did it cost?

To insure it without limiting the miles to 2000 a year they wanted around a £1000
it seems really exorbitant?

according to the dvla your vans not taxed and it should be red I have a mk 1 with flux its v8 and a quarter of your quote also if you said its for your company they wont do it on classic

I have my 1970 lwb ex german fire van and my Honda 650 bike with LV on 3000 limit mileage for £70 each fully comp.

I would guess something has got confused with Flux.

My 1972 Mk1 lhd firevan is with them at around £160 with a V6 on limited mileage. And originally they insured it for slightly less with the V4 based on the chassis number before I registered it, so before it appeared on the DVLA database.

1968 Van,classic insurance,7000miles,less than half your quote,flux,they were percific that it was not used for buisness purposes,or sign written.
Who did seller use,could be worth an ask?

Im picking it up in the morning, it has been off the road for a year or so.
I will need to get it taxed when I pick it up.

Is your van the blue one off Ebay owned by a builder's or something?
