Finding Your Parts: The Challenge of Sourcing and Insuring Unique Components

16th September, 2025

A common challenge for vintage car owners is finding authentic replacement parts. When a component is "No Longer Available" (NLA), its value can skyrocket. In the event of a claim, a standard insurer might only pay for a generic, modern alternative, which could devalue your classic. 

Our Solution: 

Our policies are designed to cover the true cost of sourcing and fitting authentic or specialist parts. We understand that a reproduction part simply won't do for your pride and joy. We work with a network of specialist underwriters to ensure your policy reflects the reality of maintaining a vintage vehicle, covering the expense of hard-to-find components and the labour from specialist mechanics. 

Ensure your policy covers the cost of authentic parts. Call Routen Chaplin on 0115 973 4437 for a tailored policy review.
