One plus for owning an old car.

[TCJBOLDIE]

Now my Starion is at the ripe old age of 30 years I can & have changed over to club registration and the fees have gone from $680.00 down to $183.00 per year.

There are limits on use as can only drive to and from events, workshops,road testing etc so there is always testing /bedding in new brake pads etc to do so no worries there.
Have advised my engine builder should my reason for driving further than the 15k radius from home be questioned

I don't drive on the roads in a manner that would give Plod reason to direct me to pull me over for a chat.

Cool. Is that like classic car tax in the UK?

Classic car insurance is usually quite cheap but they don't expect the car to be used that much.

I wish you could insure yourself for distance driven, that could save a lot of money for many people.

I also have the car fully insured when not being tracked and I get to keep the wreck if it gets written off.Insurance only covers me driving and for "limited yearly mileage".

I only drive on the road app once a month and trailer it to the events that I enter so I guess that should satisfy my insurer

PS no cover on track days serves to dampen my enthusiasm I think
