At Footman James we have been arranging classic car insurance and vintage car insurance for over 35 years to owners, collectors and traders.

We understand that classic cars are more than just vehicles; they are a passion and a labour of love. With this in mind, our comprehensive cover is designed to recognise the true value of your classic car.

As lovers of classic cars, we enjoy links with many enthusiasts and their clubs, such as the Morris Minor Owners Club and the Jaguar Drivers' Club. We directly engage with them by sponsoring classic car shows, and by offering special rates for a number of car clubs and their members. To see the full list of clubs and associations that we work with, please visit our Classic Enthusiast Clubs section.

You can be confident that your classic car will be covered by arranging your insurance through Footman James - whether it’s a Mazda MX-5, Lotus or an MGB.

Our most popular types of classic car insurance include classic MG insurance, classic TVR insurance, classic Mini insurance and classic Jaguar insurance.

Our classic car insurance is not limited just these models though, we can arrange insurance policies for a wide range of makes and models.

What classifies as a classic car?

Deciding what cars classify as a classic has been a matter of much debate. Though only vehicles pre-1976 are tax-exempt, many more modern vehicles, often known as modern classics, can also be considered a classic car.
