New Exclusive Partnership with MG Car Club

31 October 2024

We are delighted to announce a new, exclusive partnership with the MG Car Club! MG Car Club Insurance is a a new insurance scheme designed specifically for members by MG enthusiasts. The scheme will offer benefits that create a compelling reason to join the MG Car Club and, through its focus on insuring young drivers, aims to break down the barriers to young people owning MGs and participating in club activities.

MG Car Club is committed to helping young people become owners of an MG via its active Young Members branch. Now, through the scheme provided by us at Peter James Insurance – young enthusiasts who are members of the MG Car Club can access fully comprehensive insurance on their MG. This is a significant benefit over most other specialist insurers, who often set an age limit of 25 or 30 for classic car insurance.

We recognise that many young enthusiasts are keen to be involved but may not yet own an MG, so we have designed an option for ‘Accompanied Driver Cover’ where they can drive an MG with a parent or grandparent alongside them for a modest additional premium.

In addition to this the scheme prioritises club activities, with the aim of enabling MG Car Club members to derive more value from their club membership with peace of mind of knowing that their pride and joy is protected by a scheme designed with input from the club.

The benefits of ‘MG Car Club Insurance’ are to be unveiled at the 2024 NEC Classic Motor Show, where a champagne reception will be held for MG Car Club members at 10.30 am on Friday, 8th November, in Hall 3, Stand 150. MG enthusiasts will hear more details on the scheme’s benefits and chat informally with Dave Youngs, Partnerships Director at Peter James Insurance. The launch will also feature interviews with car owners and the Club’s President, John Day.

MG Car Club members can now benefit from: *

  • Exclusive rates for MG Car Club members
  • Additional discounts based on length of membership
  • Free and simple agreed value
  • Cover available for classic and modern MGs
  • Free salvage retention – in the event of a total loss, we will pay the full agreed value for the vehicle, and you may retain the salvage free of charge
  • Free Member to member cover – drive another club member’s MG with fully comprehensive cover regardless of who they are insured with
  • Multi-vehicle cover

Dave Youngs, Partnerships Director at Peter James Insurance, said:

“We’ve worked closely with the club to develop a bespoke scheme designed to fulfil members’ needs and offer a true benefit of membership through discounted premiums and unique features to help you enjoy MGs with peace of mind.”

Lorraine Noble-Thompson, Chairman of the MG Car Club, explains:

“Our objective was to create the best insurance scheme available for MGs anywhere in the market adding significant value to being a member of MG Car Club. Our new and exclusive features have not only addressed shortcomings in our previous insurance, but also provides members of the MG Car Club unique benefits they cannot get anywhere else. Now, members can rely on an insurance scheme built by the club itself. Whilst the scheme has been geared to primarily meet members’ insurance needs and deliver exceptional value to them, the addition of financial support generated from the initiative will allow us to invest in further activities, events and benefits for MG Car Club members.”

Director of the MG Car Club, Neil Brant added:

“While the areas already outlined are essential, they are just the tip of a significant iceberg. We consulted with the members to add a whole raft of extra benefits and levels of cover that we knew were essential to the full enjoyment of MGs of any age or era, from pre-war cars to modern EVs. The team at Peter James Insurance have been responsive and flexible at every step to ensure the needs of the full spectrum of our members can be met.”

The insurance world for MG Car Club members is changing for the better. To protect your MG motor car of any age, please call us on 0121 506 6026 or click here.
