Post subject:  Import Car Insurance - Recomendations?

Gday,

Anyone willing to give any advice, warnings, recomendations here regards insuring Rover Minis. Any happy or otherwise customers with a tale to tell. Can I go wrong with say Shannons?

Interested for any comments.

Thanks

mini is over 35 years old - beautifully cheap premiums $330 comprehensive/year
moke is 31 years old - crap, about the same as nrma ($15 less) - $400 third party a year, $560 comprehensive.

rover: less than 35 year old, value around $10K (im not too sure if they care if you're a P's driver or an oldie)
so im guessing it would be a fair bit

Can't remember actual prices but shannon's were really expensive for my rover mini because it wasn't a classic car.. (plus I lost my licence once for speeding)

I used "just car's" I can't remember the exact price but let me know if you want to know it, they did agreed value and they didn't mind about my loss of licence.

Yep sure am. and thats alot of money down the drain that could have been spent alot better. originally we got a quote with shannos or just car one of the two and it turned out to be arould $3000 we ended up with NRMA who were the cheapest.

At $3000 I'd be just insuring it 3rd party property and banking the rest, that way you could by another mini ever 2-3 years :lol:

Insurance companies don't seem to like the rover's...

Coom's I'm 19 and my insurance is in my name with no one else listed on the policy and it's just under a grand. Car is insured for 6k with Shannons.

I have no problem insuring with Shannons. We have two Rovers (1993 & 1994) and mutant (import) and deluxe and Mini K van. They also insure our everyday car and our house and contents. I would highly recommend them. Although I must admit some of the prices on this post seem extremely high.

I do find that the guy we have here in Vic doing our insurance at Shannons seems to be a lot cheaper than other states. His name is Matt Brinsden and he is located in the Melb. Office.

You could always give him a try.

If you are a car club member, you get a better deal with Shannons.

You also get a better deal the more cars you insure with them (eg: Jan's example).
