Reliable insurance built for the pride, performance and preservation of your classic car or cherished vehicle.
We understand your classic car is more than transport. Our cover reflects the care, value, and enjoyment you place in every journey.
Protection designed for classic car enthusiasts
At Caulfield Insurance, we recognise that owning a classic or cherished vehicle is a passion as much as a practicality.
That’s why our classic car insurance is tailored to suit how you use and maintain your vehicle, with options for limited mileage, laid-up cover, and agreed value policies.
Whether you drive occasionally, exhibit at shows, or store your vehicle securely, we’ll help protect its value and your peace of mind with a flexible, expert-led approach.
The benefits of our Classic Car policies
✓ Agreed value cover. In the event of a total loss, you’ll receive a pre-agreed payout based on your vehicle’s true worth—not just market value.
✓ Limited mileage options. Lower mileage often means reduced premiums. If you only drive occasionally, we’ll help you save while staying fully protected.
✓ Laid-up cover available. If your vehicle is off the road or being restored, you can still insure it against fire, theft, or accidental damage.
✓ Club member discounts. If you’re part of a recognised classic car club, you may be eligible for reduced rates.
✓ Experienced and understanding advisors. Our team understands the value of classic cars, financial and emotional and we’ll work with you to find the right policy.
✓ Flexible usage cover. Whether it’s weekend drives, exhibitions, or private collections, we tailor cover to match your lifestyle and needs.
