Classic car insurance
Anyone know the insurance people to go to if you're a member of the Citroen Car Club? and own a venerable BX? I've only just joined so don't have a magazine yet to get that information.
Re: Classic car insurance
Hi bud,
Footman James and Adrian Flux to name but a few. Both do classic car policies and the motor needs to be 20 years old or more. Most BXs fall into this category but some still dont.

Re: Classic car insurance
Pretty much any classic insurance company. There are many! As Mothman says, not all will happily cover BXs as some have a 20 year old limit. Phone them up though. All the classic insurance websites tend to give rubbish quotes.

Impressive!
Were there any criteria you had to fulfil? Such as off street/garaged parking or limited miles?

yes Martin , it has to be a rare citroen BX
say for example a PETROL engine with a CARB none of your fancy diesel or injection rubbish
and having TGS and Meteor badges on the boot helps

1991 BX Meteor 1.6

Footman James do me very well - I pay £160 for unlimited mileage and comprehensive for four cars the - 16v, Jowett Javelin, Visa GTI, AX GTI and Visa 17RD But they won't insure the 4x4 on the same policy its lumped with the Corrado and is a lot more...
