never heard of it for Scorpio's, maybe the Granada clubs might have something?
I'm £160 TPFT for a 24v so I dont think I'd save a huge amount but I'm all for saving a pound or two

, crazy prices , belive it or not the company im with wanted £800 at first , when i told em where to get off they came down to 578, im sure insurance companys just pluck a number out of thin air then double it
by the way im 38 and a london cab driver , god knows what they`d have qouted if i was 17....the mind boggles

Ah but that all finished in year 21,the horse was so old they were going down Shooters Hill,the cart got boss of the old horse and ran over and killed it !Simmo was saved by a quick thinking constable,who recognizing a colleague"in the cart",held out his cape and broke his fall

Rich1, you're a London cabbie then eh.....no wonder you call yourself 'Rich1' ....
I'm a licenced (Hackney carriage) Brentwood cabbie & use my Scorp as my cab 
Fully comp public liabilty insurance with protected no claims (never made or had a claim against me in 10 years of taxi insurance) costs me just under £800 which ain't bad for a taxi 'round these parts
The wifes 2.3 Ultima estate costs just over £200 TPFT with me included as a second driver.....not bad seeing as I'm a cabbie
....& my MK1 Granada (with the wife as a second driver & limited mileage of 1500K) cost me a total of £89.00 fully comp to insure last time around with Adrian Flux (classic insurance)
Some companies do classic insurance for cars that are only 15 years old. So it won't be too long before cheap classic insurance is available to many Scorpio owners
