    How are you insuring your A100 to be used as a semi daily driver ?? All the big companys (hagerty/grundy etc) say no general driving.  That's what I bought my A100 for. Probably only drive about 5000 miles or less a year/ retired/ locked garage/ and we do have a real daily driver (PT Cruiser ).,age 57, no tickets. no claims.

    regular insurane companys now have a coverage for the antique cars and trucks that is what i use now ,b i use to have the big insurance companys but they always wanted the odometer reading in feb. when it was in storage, and always made a big deal over nothing so i dumped them , same as you no clams, $100.00 per year for every $10,000. of value All the larger insurane companys have it nation wide/ state farm and so on

    Do a search for SAFECO,I have my cars & house insured with them. One newer car and a few antique daily drivers.I got much better rates with them. They don't advertise excessively like some of the Ins.companies  .

    I was with state farm 30 + years they had my house, and auto , My son had a $3,000. accendent, the rates went up by $1,200 a year, after 30 years of no claims,so my wife shoped the market and nationwide was half the price before the accendent, so we now use nationwide for the last 5 years,we had some water damage 2 years after a new roof was installed for about 5 k, and the rates are still the same, I have to say don't stay commited to any insurance company,.
    If the rates go up shop the market,the insurance industries is a big rip off case in point.
    most cars drop their value every year so you buy a brand new car , for xxxx, five years later the car is worth 1/2 of what you paid, but you are still paying the same rate.They are a BIG rip-off and make billions a year. Also i'd put a antique plate on it, . If you have 5k a year you can disconect the odometer if you had to, throw a g.p.s. on the dash. that will tell you how fast you are going.
