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

Always helpful.

Whether it is a change to a policy or just a renewal the communication is timely and the staff on the phone are very polite and helpful. I feel that whatever happened to a car there would be plenty of support to remedy the situation. Reviewed on: 19th September 2018

Excellent service and value

I have had an insurance policy for my MGB GT for a year with Footman James. I recently received a renewal quote from another insurer for my other car which was very high. I approached Footman James to insure both cars and they quoted me half of my renewal quote. Very satisfied with the level of service and the value. Reviewed on: 13th September 2018
