Classic Vehicle Insurance From Footman James

At Footman James we’ve been providing classic vehicle insurance for over 35 years and are pleased to offer members of the British Mini Club access to special BMC only rates. Key policy scheme benefits include:

  • Minis can be covered from new (driver age and mileage restriction apply)
  • Up to 10,000 miles available for Minis over 20 years old
  • Classic policies for young enthusiasts (18+) doing low mileage (restrictions apply)

Our classic car policies can also be tailored to suit your requirements with our FJ+ range of addons which include Agreed Value, FJ Rescue provided by the RAC and Nil-Deduction Salvage Retention.

Plus, did you know that at Footman James you can now combine your classic and modern vehicle insurance? With Flex you can insure you classic and modern vehicles on one policy meaning you have one premium, one renewal date and one set of documents. You'll receive the typical benefits you'd expect from a separate modern vehicle policy (for instance, you will still accrue your No Claims Bonus on your modern vehicle) and your classic will still receive the same cover you'd expect from a classic vehicle policy (such as shows & events cover as standard).
