Howden: Specialist UK Insurance for Classic and Supercars

Owning a classic or high-performance supercar is far more than a passion; it’s a significant investment. These vehicles often carry unique histories, rising market values, and characteristics that set them apart from everyday cars. As a result, standard motor insurance policies rarely offer the depth of coverage required to properly protect them.

Specialist classic and supercar insurance provides tailored protection that reflects each vehicle’s individuality. Agreed-value policies, for instance, ensure owners receive the true worth of their car in the event of a total loss, a crucial benefit when values fluctuate or exceed typical market guides. Many insurers also recognise the lower annual mileage and careful ownership that typically come with such vehicles, offering policies designed around real-world use.

Beyond financial safeguards, dedicated insurance supports the practical needs of collectors and enthusiasts. Features such as salvage retention, access to marque-approved repairers, and cover for rare or imported parts help preserve originality and maintain long-term value. For supercars, coverage often includes specialist recovery services capable of safely transporting low-clearance or high-value models.

In a market where demand for classics and performance icons continues to rise, comprehensive and correctly structured insurance is more important than ever. Whether it’s a cherished vintage model or a modern exotic, the right policy gives owners confidence and peace of mind, ensuring their pride and joy is protected both on the road and for generations to come.

 

As part of our commitment to supporting owners of rare, valuable, and historically significant vehicles, we are proud to introduce Howden UK as one of our exclusive advertising partners. Renowned for their expertise in classic and luxury car insurance, Howden offers bespoke cover tailored to the needs of discerning collectors and enthusiasts. Their specialist approach ensures that every policy is crafted with an understanding of provenance, preservation, and true market value, providing owners with confidence, security, and a level of personal service that matches the prestige of the vehicles they protect.

When it comes to safeguarding high-value vehicles, a one-size-fits-all policy simply isn’t enough. Standard insurance often lacks the depth, flexibility, and reassurance required for rare classics, modern supercars, and prestigious luxury marques. This is where Howden’s specialist classic and luxury car insurance truly stands apart.

Backed by decades of experience and a dedicated private client team, Howden recognises that every collector and enthusiast is different. Whether you own a single high-performance machine, a carefully curated selection of classic icons, or an entire stable of luxury models, their bespoke policies provide the precise level of cover needed to protect your most treasured vehicles.

Whether it’s a cherished classic, a restored vintage model, or a high-performance supercar, your vehicle is a true passion. Protecting it properly means choosing specialist insurance as tailored as the car itself.

1992 Ferrari F40 | European market example

The 1992 Ferrari F40 remains one of the most iconic supercars ever built, and this European-market example captures the model at its purest. Celebrated for its raw performance and uncompromising engineering, the F40 pairs a lightweight chassis with a twin-turbocharged V8 delivering electrifying speed and engagement. With its distinctive Kevlar and carbon-fibre bodywork, exposed composite details, and unmistakable silhouette, this example represents the F40 exactly as Ferrari intended: visceral, analogue, and thrillingly focused. As one of the final models signed off under Enzo Ferrari’s leadership, it stands today as a true collector’s benchmark.

An exceptional 1992 Ferrari F40 is now being offered by Gallery Aaldering — one of our long-standing and exclusive European advertising partners — and is prominently featured on Classic Motors For Sale.

A remarkably original Ferrari F40 presented in outstanding condition, this example retains its beautifully preserved, seemingly original paintwork — clean, honest, and refreshingly free from over-restoration. The windows, rubbers, and other exterior details remain true to factory specification, complemented by an equally well-kept engine bay. As an original European-market car with an odometer and produced near the end of the F40’s limited production run in 1992, it stands as a highly desirable late example of the iconic model. With just over 1,300 F40s ever built, its authenticity and condition make it an exceptional find for any discerning collector.

In 1987, Ferrari marked its 40th anniversary with a car that embodied its purest philosophy: the ultimate road-going performance machine. Evolving from the abandoned 288 GTO Evoluzione Group B project, the F40 was engineered with a single focus — speed. Comfort was sacrificed for performance, with a lightweight Kevlar, carbon-fibre, and aluminium construction and a 2.9-litre twin-turbo V8 producing 478 hp. Designed by Pininfarina and bodied by Scaglietti, it became the first production car to surpass 200 mph, securing its place as a true automotive milestone.
