    So looking around at various insurance websites that do vintage (>30years old) insurance, they all seem to have a over 25's only policy. Anyone know of any vintage insurers who would insure a 23 year old or other insurance companies who would give a good quote with a normal policy on a vintage vehicle?

    (Vehicle I'm thinking of is a landrover series 2, possibly a lightweight)

    Nope. Axa might, but equally might decline.

    First off, don't buy a 2, but a 2a - The synchro on the gearbox will make it a much 'nicer' drive if you plan to use it regularly.

    Secondly, you'll get insurance from Quinn on normal vehicle policy, especially if you have an NCB.

    Thirdly, if you live outside a city, try FBD.

    Oh as regards a series 2 or lightweight, try get one with overdrive makes it much easier to cruise.

    as far as i can remember you can get insured with hibernian through there collectors insurance once you are 23, well they did when i worked there a year ago, it may have changed since then but give your local branch a call, dont bother calling the contact centre

    Norton's are merely brokers.
