Does  anyone know of any
other specialist insurance companies?  If not I  will have to insure it on my
regular policy.  Does anyone else do that  for daily driver classics?  If so,
what about "agreed value"  etc?

No Ian, and I've been struggling with this.  I want to use both  my TR4 and 
my MGBGT as daily drivers.  All the specialty insurances have  serious 
restrictions on use of the vehicle but will give "agreed value"  collision 
coverage.  
My insurance company, USAA, will insure for auto  liability, and even give me 
rental car and towing insurance, but no collision  coverage.
 
I even asked if I could insure one car with two companies, but was told  this 
would invalidate the insurance coverage from either or both  companies.
 
I guess I'll just gamble, but heck, with a $97,000.00 TR4, I'll definitely  
worry a lot.

As he stared at her ample bosom, he daydreamed of the dual  Stromberg
carburetors in his vintage Triumph, highly functional yet  pleasingly formed, 
perched prominently on top of the intake manifold, aching for  experienced 
hands, the small knurled caps of the oil dampeners begging to be  inspected and 
adjusted as
described in chapter seven of the shop  manual.
