Default Newbie introducing and classic insurance question!

Hiya guys I really love this site its ace! I have been viewing it for a while now and have learnt a lot and got many ideas. Unfortunately I only have a 1.3 popular rs look-a-like (due to insurance costs while im at uni), but its only done 47k and its mint, I love it!

Anyway my insurance is due and I was woundering if it would be possible to get on a classic policy? What are the criteria for a car to be able to get a classic policy? Bearing in mind that im 19 and the car would probably be classed as modified! Anyone know of any that may consider me?

Cars a mk4 1989 btw

Cheers guys, any help much appriecated

Colin

i have two mk4 escorts, both on classic policy. one is an rs turbo, the otherb is a xr3i with turbo conversion.
criteria is based on model not spec, any escort up to 1990 is classic
