I thought everybody had cheap insurance for their MG's.
To restate: I'm paying $111/6months. That's with State Farm
in Missouri (I live in St. Louis County - not the city - right
next door though). Full coverage, I think 250 deductable on
everything. It's classified as a recreational car with less
than 6K miles per year.
I have two other cars (the daily drivers) with them too. And they
do have a Multi-car discount. Plus I've been with them for over
X years (I'm not sure what X equals) and that puts me in their
Superduperextravalue deal.
But I found that even with State Farm, it's the agent that makes
a big diff. You just about to have to visit/call/write/etc. to find
out all the ways you can save money. When I got married, I was
able to knock about $75/6months on my wife's '79 TBird by just
getting rid of the Towing/Lodging/Cabfare parts and raising
the deductable to $500.
They'll tell you there's not much diff between a $50 and $100
and $500 deductable, but have them run it through and you'll
notice a BIG diff in your premiums.
As long as you have all the proper documentation of restoration
work, you can have a '68 Cherry that'll be insured at '68 Roach
rates.

P.S. Well, all this goes for me in St. Louis at least.
