Has it been written off? If so, you might not be able to get insured on it, as I had that problem with one car that I was interested in. It had just been scraped down the side & repaired and was a low-class write-off because it was meant to have been too uneconomical to repair (but getting repairs on the insurance is always expensive, so it doesn't take much for it to be written-off!).
