Classic Golf Insurance from Mk1 Golf Owners Club Insurance
The first Golf prototypes were developed in 1969 as a replacement for the VW Beetle, but were first officially produced in 1974 and went on to sell 7 million vehicles globally. The Golf also signalled Volkswagen’s switch from air-cooled, rear-mounted engines to water-cooled and front-mounted engines.

Supporting Young Drivers
We know that insurance can often be a barrier to young people being able to own or enjoy classic vehicles, so we have developed two insurance products specifically targeted at young drivers (under 21), available only through active membership with their club.
We are able to arrange cover for:
- Younger owners of a classic Mk1 Golf
- Young enthusiasts as an additional driver
If you’re a young member of the Mk1 Golf Owners Club and would like to get a quote from Peter James Insurance, please speak to your main club contact. The club will then contact us to arrange a callback with you, where a member of our friendly team will be able to give you a quote.
