Insurance checklist:

Before you sign up for your Ford Anglia insurance, ensure the following:

  • You have a clear understanding of the coverage

  • You have considered the costs of insuring a classic car

  • You have read and understood the terms and conditions of a classic cars policy

Is a Ford Anglia a classic car?

Absolutely, the Ford Anglia is indeed considered a classic car. Produced by the Ford motor company between 1939 and 1967, this car holds a special place in automobile history. Its iconic design, combined with simple mechanics, makes it a favourite among classic car enthusiasts. The Ford Anglia's fame was further boosted when it featured in popular culture, most notably in the Harry Potter film series.

Is the Ford Anglia a rear-wheel drive vehicle?

Yes indeed, the Ford Anglia is a rear-wheel drive vehicle. This compact car, produced by Ford UK between 1939 and 1967, is well-renowned for its distinctive rearward-slanting window and slick design. Its rear-wheel drive configuration added to its charm, making it a favourite among classic ford enthusiasts. This feature not only enhances the car's balance and handling but also gives it a sporty feel.

What are limited mileage discounts?

Many classic insurance providers offer discounts for limited mileage. If you drive your motor only occasionally, you will be doing fewer miles therefore this can lower your premium.

Ford owners club in the UK?

There are numerous members clubs in the UK that cater to enthusiasts of this iconic brand. These clubs bring together people who share a common love for Ford vehicles, providing them with a platform to exchange ideas, share experiences, and even showcase their own classic fords.

Whether you're an admirer of the classic ford such as the Ford Escort, Ford Cortina, Ford Capri or a fan of the modern Ford Fiesta, these clubs have something for everyone. Click here to check out our blog on the amazing story Neil Grubb and his Ford Cortina. Becoming a club member in the UK is not just about the cars; it's about being part of a enthusiasts club that shares your passion and is also a great chance to speak to fellow club members on topics such as classic Ford insurance.

When is a car classed as a classic car?

For us, defining a classic car is the million dollar question as it is almost impossible to define a ‘classic.’

It’s as much about the way a vehicle is treasured and loved as it about the age of the vehicle itself.

Whilst HMRC may define a car as a classic for BIK purposes when it reaches 15 years old, in practice, many younger cars (MGTF, MX5 etc) can be insured as a classic car if they are used in the true classic sense

What is the difference between classic car insurance and regular insurance?

Generally, classic car insurance is often cheaper due to the mileage being lower than that of a standard car and because the car is more likely to be well looked after by its owners.

We also offer a Limited Mileage Discount as well as other benefits such as a Two-Year Agreed Valuation and Club Member discounts for our classic car enthusiasts.

What is meant by an ‘agreed valuation’?

In the event of a total loss claim, the amount paid will be the sum agreed on the current valuation certificate less any policy excess.

At Lancaster, our expert Valuation Officer will review each of the valuation forms submitted to ensure that the vehicle has been valued correctly and is in line with the current market. We now offer a Two-Year Agreed Valuation meaning it’s only compulsory to complete the valuation process every 2 years.

You can of course, complete every year if you believe your valuation has changed. You can find out more on our Agreed Valuation page.

Why should you buy a classic car?

Buying a classic car is so much more than just an investment opportunity and often marks the start of a great adventure.

Purchasing a classic car can bring a great deal of excitement and enthusiasm - whether it’s the unique aroma or that classic interior, the distinct smell of Castrol oil, the look of admiration from passers-by, or simply the joy of ‘real’ driving – there are countless reasons to buy a classic car.
