RE: [doc] Delorean Advice



Darren,
 
    I am currently in the process of purchasing a Delorean, and am also having problems with insurance. I have finance for the car, and a great car too, but insurance is a killer. For fully comprehensive insurance, being 21, I was looking at £5500 a year. If I'm a named driveron my fathers policy, with his 10 years no claims taken into account, it is still £1200. So you see, little bit a of pain being under 25. The over thirty thing was crap however. If I was 25 or over, the insurance would come down to £185 per year on my fathers policy. Killer huh. Best thing to shop like I am. I haven't given up hope yet, but it is an uphill struggle at present. Martin has a few contacts which I'm going to try out this week, and see where we go from there.
    As for importing a car from the US, best to ask Martin again on that one, he and his friend both imported a D at the same time. They'll be able to give you loads of info on imports, taxes, legalities etc. It's not the cheapest dream in the world, I've learnt that much, but I know it's worth every effort to make it happen. Good luck,

Hi,

 

Please could you people offer me some advice? I have been interested in Delorean cars for a while now and saw my first one the other week, it drove past my house in Hessle, Hull. It looked amazing as it drove towards then past me!!!

I have been checking with insurance companies and they will not insure me as I am only 21. A guy I spoke to at some AA company said most places would only insure me on such a carif I was over the age of 30, but I’m sure I have spoken to somebody in this DOC mailing list by email who had one and they were not 30. Does anybody knowany companies that would insure me and what price am I likely to be looking at?

Also how much does it cost (roughly) to ship a Delorean over from the USA? Do you guys think that this is the way to go for me to get my own Delorean?

Thanks for any help offered.
