Default Classic car insurance Who's good and who are you with and why?

As title i'm finally back in full time employment and fancy another toy ie rs turbo with unlimited mileage etc what sort of deals are companies offering and what should i expect and roughly for what money?

Can anyone share some info on what i should expect such as 200 bhp im 28 years old employed full time 4 years ncb dont know about this though as its used on my main car,

Clean licence and the car will be well alarmed and garaged

Thanks and sorry about all the questions ive never had a classic policy before

thanks guys might try need2insure as there only 2 miles away and have heard good things but want to shop around for the best deals, think i'd prob keep ncb on the daily though otherwise that would be rediculous to insure

Mk2 Cortina, lowered, wheels, rollcage, 5 speed conversion etc... £125 fully comp with Lancaster.

Will be changing to Flux now as sadly Lancaster couldn't cover the new engine conversion. Around double that now for 300 bhp Zetec turbo and all other mods declared.
