**Here are some features you should look for when shopping for classic car insurance in Athens:**

- **Agreed Value** - This means the provider will pay you the full (agreed to) amount in the event of a covered total loss, less any applicable deductible. This type of coverage is much better than “actual cash value” or “stated value” that you may get with some companies.
- **Low Rates** - Why pay full-time insurance when you drive your collector car only part-time?
- **Coverage Options** - Not all collector cars are the same, so we can work with you to determine the right amount of coverage to meet your specific needs.
- **Generous Mileage** - You’re proud of your collector car, so drive it. Not all insurance companies have a mileage limit, but most collector cars should be driven less than 5,000 annual miles to maintain their value.
- **Roadside Assistance** - Whether you're down the street or on a classic rally through the mountains, you’ll want to find coverage that will flatbed your car to the closest qualified repair facility.

#### Coverage Tip

Understand the value of your vehicle. Often times collector vehicles appreciate with age.

If your collector vehicle is ever totaled in an accident or stolen, you want to be certain that it is insured for its current market value.

## Frequently Asked Questions about everything insurance

### How much does a classic car insurance insurance policy cost?

The cost of a classic car insurance policy typically ranges between $200 and $600 per year, depending on factors such as the vehicle’s value, usage, storage conditions, and the driver’s record. Premiums may be higher, sometimes exceeding $1,000 annually, for rare or high-value collector cars or when additional coverage options like agreed-value protection are included. In Alabama, rates can also vary based on state regulations and how often the vehicle is driven, with lower costs usually offered to owners who use their classic cars only for shows or occasional leisure drives.

### Are there any discounts for classic car insurance insurance?

Yes, there are several discounts available for classic car insurance depending on your provider and policy. Common options include multi-vehicle discounts for insuring more than one car, membership discounts for belonging to a car club or collector’s association, and secure storage discounts for keeping your vehicle in a locked garage. You may also qualify for lower rates if your car has limited annual mileage, if you bundle your classic car policy with other insurance plans, or if your vehicle is equipped with safety and anti-theft features. These discounts help reduce overall premiums while rewarding responsible ownership and proper vehicle care.

### What happens if I need to file an insurance claim?

Always [contact us](/contact) first, so we can best advise you on whether filing the claim makes sense or can adversely impact your future premiums and is best for you to self-insure the loss. Don’t make the mistake of filing a small claim, since all claims stay on your claims record for 5-years, which will impact your insurance premium for a 5-year period. Let our in-house claims advocates help guide you through this process.

### What is a classic car insurance insurance policy deductible?

The amount of loss paid by the policyholder. Either a specified dollar amount and/or a percentage of the total value. The larger the deductible, the lower the premium charged for the same coverage, since you are assuming a higher loss amount by taking a higher deductible. Insurance carriers only pay losses above the deductible amount, so if the loss incurred is not substantially above your deductible, it’s usually best to self-insure (i.e., pay the loss yourself out-of-pocket) by not filing it with your insurance carrier.
