VW
Specialist insurance for your classic Volkswagen.
Protect your classic VW
The iconic Beetle. The Type 2 campervan. The early Golfs and Sciroccos. Every classic Volkswagen carries a story.
Whether it’s family holidays or late-night tinkering in the garage, a first car or the thrill of an original Mk1 GTI, original or tastefully modified, VW’s imprint stretches from beachside campsites to city streets, and from grassroots motorsport to international car meets. From the first Beetle’s engine to the hot-hatch magic of a Mk2 Golf GTI, these cars have always been about more than getting from A to B. So, whatever VW you own, it deserves protection shaped around how you use it.
At Abbeyfields Insurance, we specialise in arranging classic, vintage and prestige car insurance. With decades of experience in the industry, we’ll help ensure that your Volkswagen, and all the memories it holds, are safeguarded against the unexpected.
Why your classic VW needs specialist insurance
Owning a classic VW is a deeply personal experience. It may be your weekend escape, your camper for summer road trips, or the Beetle you’ve spent years restoring.
You want it ready for club meets, Volkswagen festivals, coastal drives, European tours or those quiet Sunday spins that remind you why these cars matter. Your insurance should support every part of that lifestyle.
And with Split-screen and early Bay campers, Beetle Ovals, Karmann Ghias, Mk1 and Mk2 GTIs and even T25 campers commanding strong prices, many VWs are sought-after.
At Abbeyfields, we can arrange tailored Volkswagen insurance that reflects the way you look after and enjoy your classic. We’ll make sure it’s properly protected against accidents, loss or damage, so you can drive or show it with confidence.
How we protect your classic VW
At Abbeyfields, we’ll build your policy around you and your vehicle. We can insure Volkswagens of every era, from classic Beetles, Notchbacks and Squarebacks to more modern icons like the Golf, Corrado, Polo and Passat. We can also insure original and restored VW Campers, and vintage and ex-military vehicles. 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 VW owners’ club members
- Some of the lowest admin fees on the market
- Dedicated account manager
You can insure your classic VW 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 Volkswagen repairer to ensure it’s returned to its pre‑claim condition by experts who understand the dependable German engineering associated with this iconic marque.
