Sunbeam
Specialist insurance for your classic Sunbeam.
Protect your classic Sunbeam
Sunbeam has never lacked character or pedigree. From the early Wolverhampton-built cars that won major races and set land speed records to the V8-powered Tiger that became a legend, its vehicles have always stood for engineering confidence and a proud competition history.
Whether yours is a pre-war Sunbeam, a Series Alpine, a spirited Rapier or a rare Harrington Le Mans, its unique place in British automotive history deserves proper protection.
At Abbeyfields Insurance, we specialise in arranging classic and vintage car insurance. With decades of experience in the industry, we’ll help ensure that your cherished Sunbeam is always protected, no matter how many club events you attend.
Why your classic Sunbeam needs specialist insurance
A classic Sunbeam is no ordinary old car. You need insurance that accounts for that.
Owning a Sunbeam means you’re part of a dedicated community of enthusiasts. You want your car ready for club meets, Rootes Group gatherings, historic regulatory events and weekend drives that show why these cars can still hold their own. Your cover should support, not limit, your involvement in the Sunbeam community. And with some models commanding strong prices, the financial side matters, too.
Our specialist Sunbeam insurance gives you the peace of mind that your car is properly protected against accidents, loss or damage, however you use your car.
How we protect your Sunbeam
At Abbeyfields, we’ll build your policy around you and your vehicle. We can insure Sunbeams of every era, from the vintage Sunbeam-Talbots to the later Alpine and Rapier Fastbacks. We can also insure rare or export-only models like the Minx, Vogue/Arrow and Funwagon/Highwayman. Just let us know what model you own and we’ll arrange a bespoke policy, which can include:
- Limited mileage discount
- Laid‑up and SORN cover
- Optional breakdown and accident recovery
- Multi‑car discount (applied from the first vehicle)
- Motor legal expenses (optional, up to £100,000)
- Modified and custom vehicle options
- Discount for recognised Sunbeam owners’ club members
- Some of the lowest admin fees on the market
- Dedicated account manager
You can insure your classic Sunbeam at an agreed value at no extra cost and update it whenever you need to. If it’s written off after an accident, you’ll receive that pre‑agreed settlement, minus your policy excess. And if your car needs repairs after a claim, you’re free to choose your own Sunbeam repairer to ensure it’s returned to its pre‑claim condition by experts who understand the unique sporting heritage of this much-loved British marque.
