I'm thinking of getting my car registered as a collector, but if I don't get savings on my insurance fees, I don't see much of a point.

Hi Scooter:

Welcome to the club. Yes, my car is registered as a collector car. The process is quite simple, but the rules are it must be >15 years old AND less than 1500 wordwide production AND you must have another car registered with ICBC for work. You cannot drive a collector car to work or school.

Your B8 should meet this criteria. Its a huge savings, I pay around $600 per year for full coverage.

If you look on ICBCs website, there is a information on how to apply. All you have to do is take some pictures, fill out the application form, write up a letter explaining the low production of your car and submit it to ICBC. The application actually goes to an independent expert for approval (i.e. BMW Club of BC).
