Was newtified when I typed that 
Basically the Rover P6 V8 will always be worth more than an Omega, and beinga bit rarefied more likely to be driven less and looked after better, whereas a £300 Omega is likely to be driven into the ground, so any slight bump will see it written off.
A bit like buying life insurance at 80, you're guaranteed to die fairly soon, so the premiums are daft to cover the payout 
Yes, but by the same token, maximum payout in the Omega case is £300 (plus any 3rd party claim). A P6 could well be much more than that, as you say. Probability of any of the above is down to 2 things, though:
Miles travelled per annum
Care taken by driver in covering said miles
This is where the difference lies - between classic car "polisher" on limited miles and someone who spends £300 on a runabout.
