I did not see this post to my own e-mail and am thinking that somehow it did not go through. I am re-sending it in hopes that it will go through this time. Confirmation of receipt from anyone on the List would be appreciated. 

TIA, Gene

Hi All, 

With the recent jump in auction prices for our cars, I am wondering what people like me who just enjoy driving their cars are doing for insurance. I just got turned down by Grundy because the "vehicle cannot be used as backup, primary or secondary transportation". This dispite the fact both my wife and I have other cars which serve as our regular daily driver vehicles. 

To me, being able to take the Tiger out when and where I want to go is the essence of having and enjoying the car in the first place. It is the journey not the destination that matters to me. I bought the car new in 1967 and have never thought of it as a collectible or investment. Still with the recent escalation in apparent values, I do not want to be stupid about insurance. 

Anyone else on the List that might be of a similar mind as me and own their Tiger for the enjoyment of driving it can bring? If so what do you do for insurance? 

TIA, 

Gene
