Was with Shannons for many years, recently moved to RACV on third party fire and theft.
Can't recommend Shannons enough, still have my home and contents with them and have claimed 3 times without any fuss at all.

I've been with JustCar for the last few years, they've been great with modifications and agreed value. Unfortunately they're closing down this year. I inquired with Shannons and it seems they won't insure if the vehicle isn't garage parked at night - is this the case with you guys too? Most other insurers seem cagey with agreed values and don't take into account the condition of the car and whether it's actually worth more than the "red book" value (which seems suspiciously low) - the best number I could get was $6000 (with a hefty premium) - most won't go above $5k!

I've got a vehicle that has the pleasure of being driveway parked (family hack) and Shannon's are ok with it. My vehicles with them are all agreed value, one much more than the redbook value on Shannon's advice.

From memory it has to be parked in a garage at night, but saying that, it isn't something that they ever check.

I went with Youi on my latest car due to pricing and being covered for modifications,etc. as long as everything is reported. Shannon's for someone my age (20 y/o male) was pretty expensive; almost double the 2nd most expensive quote I was given from another company.. and their cover was max $9000 agreed value (for a 94 JDM hardtop turbo!)
Previously I've always tried to go with Just Car however as they're closing down now, it's kinda hard for us young 'uns to get a good deal now!

Yeah, it's not too flash hot. Bright side to it I suppose is that you don't exactly intend on writing the car off, so don't stress about the covered value. Hopefully you'll never have to use it!

I'm with Shannons with two cars.
The mr2 is valued at $7000 with full insurance.
Another's option They had for me was insurance only if ever anything happens to the car at home or when you take it to the track on trailer. They have few options depending on what Yu do with the car.
