    I know the fella that owns that. He had it for sale for months and months a couple of years back with no interest so decided to keep it. Uses it for weddings the odd time.

    Most of them about the place were blue. They're still a cracking looking machine.

    Designed by the same guy who gave us the E60 5 series, Chris Bangle.

    If you have a policy already, it's not a problem.
    Changed my insurance from a 95 Trooper to a 00 one with FBD last year.
    Didn't even ask to see the CVRT cert.

    Different story. Lots of insurances won't take new business, when the car is over 15 years old.

    Once it's over 25 years old, you can get a classic policy. That's a different kettle of fish.

    The trick to your problem is to insure something newer, then change the policy over. They have to insure you then on a 15+ year old car, as it you're an existing customer. But they'll load the policy, for sure.
