looking to insure my good old series 3 109, hasn't yet got MOT but I'm 99.9% sure it'll pass without a doubt. Been told I'll have to insure it as a truck? What's the best/preferably cheapest place to insure it?

Welcome and good luck.
Just wanted to say I got muuuuuuuuuuuch cheaper quotes to add my son to my 90 as a named driver than to a "normal" small car, not sure what a stand alone quote would be like though.
What is your Landy classed as on the logbook?

Cost £30 to add me to my eldest lads insurance (1.6 focus) bringing it to just over £300 but to add him to my normal car which is a lower insurance group than his (not the 90) took my insurance to over £500

Pretty sure they just pull numbers out of the air, rarely any rhyme or reason that I can see

My current everyday car was £40 cheaper to insure on a Wednesday as opposed to the Tuesday

Adrian Flux are really good. And they don't penalise you lime other insurers do for a big chunk of modifications either.

In fact, I think some of the mods I declared made it cheaper than I was expecting, I assume this is because they value their insurance based on the fact that people who have these type of vehicles actually care about they're cars.
