I can only find a couple of insurers that will offer insurance on my 1930 Eccles tourer. The quote I have is 280 pounds which seems to me to be eye watering high.
Can any kind soul provided links to other insurers please.

Nor County insurance, 0845 345 4525,(aka Caravan Rescue Insurance) do agreed value cover, and specialise in classic vans. I have my Royale with them, but it ain't cheap!
They are brokers rather than an insurance company, but when I had to make a claim a couple of years ago it was handled without any drama, and settled within days.

Thanks for the lead, sorry delay in reply. I will try the Company out when my insurance is up for renewal.

if it's any consolation the best quote I could obtain for an agreed value of £20K on my Carlight (valued by Carlight) was nearly £700.00

Might I suggest that if your only real concern is theft then have a look at this product:

Thanks for response david. More concerned over an accident on the road to be honest. That and the dread of fire, being all wood I expect it would go up like the proverbial tinder box, I do carry an extinguisher of course.

Thank you, problem is as soon as Insurance Company hears 'pre 1930' they run a mile! Sad
