It's never an exact science with insurance companies and none of their logic is transparent. General rule of thumb is that anything over 10 years old (some have reduced this to 8 years old) tends to be expensive to insure, anything over 15 years old tends to be near impossible to get insurance on unless you already have a policy with them.
