E-Type, XK120, Mk2 and beyond — specialist insurance for Jaguar classics in South Africa.
Jaguar Classic Insurance in South Africa
Jaguar classics represent some of the most valuable and sought-after vehicles in the South African collector market. The Jaguar E-Type, regularly cited as the most beautiful car ever made, can command R2–5 million in South Africa in good condition. The XK120/140/150 roadsters, the compact Mk2 saloon and the XJ6 Series 1 all have dedicated followings. Given the high values involved, agreed-value specialist insurance is essential, and storage and security conditions will be closely scrutinised.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does specialist Jaguar classic insurance cover?
Specialist Jaguar insurance typically includes agreed value (full replacement amount without depreciation), fire and theft, accidental damage, third-party liability, and cover for participation in shows and club events. Some policies include agreed mileage limits that reduce premiums for low-usage vehicles.
How often should I update the agreed value on my E-Type?
Jaguar E-Type values have appreciated significantly over recent years. It is recommended to review and update your agreed value annually, using a current valuation from a Jaguar specialist or recognised classic car valuation service.
Is my Jaguar covered while attending concours events?
Most specialist classic car policies include show and concours attendance as standard, or as an add-on endorsement. Confirm this with your broker before entering, particularly for events where your vehicle will be on display in a public area.
