Owning a rare or beautiful car is more than just driving from A to B, it’s a passion, an investment and often a lifelong dream. From classic cars and collector’s pieces to modern supercars, people take pride in owning vehicles that stand out.

But here’s the irony: while many car enthusiasts put time, money and love into their cars, when it comes to car insurance, too many settle for the cheapest policy. At first glance, that feels like a win for the wallet, but when it comes to protecting niche and high-value cars, cheap car insurance can cost you more in the long run.

Why Cheap Car Insurance Isn’t Always Best

The truth is simple: cheap insurance often means basic coverage. These stripped-back policies are designed for everyday runarounds, not rare or specialist cars. They may look appealing, but they can leave huge gaps in protection:

  • Limited payout values (often below the true worth of your car).
  • Standard repair garages instead of specialist bodyshops.
  • Exclusions for events, shows, or modifications.

And when the unexpected happens, whether it’s a minor scrape at a car meet, theft, or a serious accident, owners quickly find out that the cheapest option wasn’t the smartest. 

You know what it’s like trying to call your bank these days, well, try calling a mainstream insurer or comparison site when wanting to make a claim, we politely say ”good luck”

Protecting More Than Just a Car

Your car isn’t just metal and rubber. It’s history, passion, and investment. That’s why specialist car insurance matters.

A comprehensive policy tailored for niche and high-value cars can include:

  • Agreed Value Cover – so you’re paid what the car is really worth.
  • Access to Expert Repairs – trusted bodyshops that know how to handle rare, niche or performance cars.
  • Tailored Extras – cover for rallies, multi-car collections, or laid-up vehicles.
  • Peace of Mind – knowing your pride and joy is properly safeguarded.
  • Legal Expenses  – £100,000 covering road risk cover
  • EU / UK Breakdown Cover - service for road and risk cover

It’s not just about paying more, it’s about making sure that if the worst happens, you’re not left regretting a false economy.
