Review of the Footman James, Classic Car Insurance Broker:

Check your policy

I had a classic loved BMW E30.I believed that Footman James were my insurer, they were not. Although their glossy website looks great, READ THE SMALL PRINT. There was an accident where my E30 was deemed a total loss. Then all became clear, I had been passed to Ageas. Ageas are not classic car insurers they will not insure a classic car unless it is passed to them by a BROKER. I now know that Footman James acted as a broker not an insurer ,I was oblivious to this. I specifically wanted an insurer that appreciated a classic car owners needs, they are so unlike modern vehicles. I believed that Footman James could provide this. They did not. Ageas have made my life an absolute nightmare and I would not wish this on anyone else. I have been through hell. Check your policy you could be with Ageas or similar. Just be very careful, you could lose your precious vehicle and your mind. Reviewed on: 1st June 2022

Friendly, well-informed agents

It's good to speak to someone who actually rides a motorcycle and who understands what's involved and required. Reviewed on: 20th September 2018

Friendly, good servcie and good pricing.

The insurance industry seems to become less personal and less customer-focused each year, with auto-renewal cons and difficulty speaking to a representative, but Footman James are easy to talk to, respond quickly to communications and offer polices with good cover at excellent prices.

Classic Insurance for Classic Cars

The classic car policy is a package of cover that is a great fit for the classic car owner with motoring on high days and holidays when the sun is shining (and sometimes when it isn't). Easy to deal with when making changes and at competitive rates Reviewed on: 20th September 2018

Definitely the best for classic car insurance. It's good to know I've got the best cover for my 1963 Rover P4 110 Reviewed on: 20th September 2018

Professional and helpful, the staff take time to understand your insurance requirements to ensure the best possible cover for your needs is obtained. Reviewed on: 20th September 2018

Hassle free & professional

This is the 4th year that I have renewed my classic car insurance for my Mercedes 190e and I would have no hesitation in recommended Footman James as a first class broker with very helpful and friendly customer service operators. Reviewed on: 19th September 2018
