Since last year a SORN'ed car must be insured wherever its kept.

Third party is in case it bursts into flames and burns your neighbours house down. But not a legal requirement, try here-

Have you tried adding it on to your household insurance. I know someone in the game whose household policy will cover track and racing motorbikes for an additional small premium. Might do similar with a car. Ncb wise you won't lose any if it is renewed within 2 yrs.

While I was restoring a car many years ago, I just added it to my house contents insurance

Well technically my dad added it to his insurance as I was a youngster still living / renting at home...
