If the insurer accepts, then you should think about several things.
1. Need for this particular vehicle.
- If you are highly dependent on this vehicle (no other vehicle around); OR
- Sentimental value (determined to preserve the vehicle regardless)
AND
-
You (As third party do not take into account of all authorized drivers) drive in high risk mode i.e. frequent accidents in the pastThen yes you should cancel your current, and go for the first.
2. The value of the vehicle.
- If your insured value is lower than or equal to cash payment fixes, then chances are, you are betting on the NCD upon subsequent renewals to be more value for money.
- But until then, if your condition is as above bolded part, then you should go for it.
Either way, since you are concerned about the value, I would presume that you are conscious about the costs and want to have a maximum protection possible.
Therefore, unless you are not confident at all of your own driving skills / you drive recklessly, then you should stick with the third party until subsequent renewal.
Edit: Like above, you need to review the insurer history for insuring older car models, as the claims for parts maybe a hassle.
