Hi Gazza

You can get isurance for your tractor from NFU  at around £40 to 50  for a year or you could try     Cherished Car Insurance. 01252 713148.

 

                      quite easy to do

 

If you intend to drive the tractor around the showground you will need insurance , some shows will allow you to exhibit without insurance if you just have a static display .

I don't know what rules/laws are different on your side of the pond..........

I just found out yesterday that if I am a member ($10 fee) to one of the area clubs, I am automatically covered at their shows....Otherwise, you have to have $500.000 liability insurance......For $10, I am now a card carrying member!

NFU don't care about age of driver, the policy covers the tractor not the driver.

So it covers theft/damage I sopppse but I went on the website and I can't find the section I need can someone give me the URL to the part of the page I need

James

P.s. Does that mean I can drive it on the road with insurance

James, I was only 16 years of age when I took out my policy with NFU, I have just renewed mine, as mark mentioned, you as a person aren't covered, it's the tractor itself, so anyone driving it with the policy holders permission. They didn't even ask my age. They just asked for name, address, vehicle value, serial number etc,
