The biggest issue with Shannon's is that they won't insure you unless the car is parked in a lock-up garage every night!

yeah thats the condition with shannons the others will cover you if its secure parking
shannons has to be garaged overnight. not on the street, nature strip etc

Old thread revival.
 
I had been insured with YOUI for my previous car (Hyundai Elantra).  They were great to deal with & cheaper than others.  Then when it came to claiming they were better than I expected, again, they were friendly & easy to deal with, plus the money was in the bank within 2 weeks.  They were also good when I rang them for insurance on the MR2.  Still cheaper than others, altho at the time I didn't check Shannon's.  I had checked Shannon's on line & it basically said that they wouldn't insure a Daily unless you had something else insured with them, so didn't do anything about it.  Saw them at a Show N Shine earlier this year & they said they would insure me.  $240 cheaper PA than YOUI & insured for almost $2000 more, so I have changed.  Also cheaper for contents insurance.  When I called YOUI to see if they could match, they couldn't go anywhere close, and the girl I was speaking to said she also had her special cars insured with Shannon's instead of YOUI. lol
 
Just got my CTP papers.  Went on-line to Shannon's & they are $90 cheaper than anyone else for 6 months.  They don't come up on the any of the "Compare CTP green slip" websites tho.

I believe Shannons have just recently reviewed their pricing for MR2's that are original and not modified. 
I don't know any exact details on their pricing though.

Just hit the Shannons' site for an online quote and they don't even have MR2 listed as a model :/

Yeah I know, that's why I hadn't tried them.  But when I actually spoke to someone they said they would.  Give them a call.
 
Went onto "Just Car"  to have a look.  Yes the premium was less than Shannon's, but the "agreed value" was even less than what YOUI had it at & there was no-where to change it.  So if they would insure it for more the I guess the premium would end up about the same as Shannon's or maybe even more. 

My AW is covered for $9000 and cost  is $215. Under vintage and veteran with other policys giving me a discount but this cover is better than there premium cover.

After the 30th Anniversary Event, a few MR2 owners spoke to Shannon's about non performance MR2, and as a result Shannon's have reviewed there pricing policy as at 4 July 2014. Give them a call and mention the MR2 Club. Another benefit of belonging to a car club!

My quote from them was earlier this year, but I've only just taken it up.  Maybe I should have asked for a re-quote.  Ah well I'm still pretty happy with it. They did ask whether I was a member of a club at the time tho.  When I was reading through their stuff they mention that the car is covered when doing Defensive Driver Training which is something I'm considering so that's a good thing too. 
I was also very happy about the $90 saving on the green slip for 6 months.

I currently have my 2 with Just Car the problem I had was most insurance companies wouldn't insure it as soon as I mentioned it was a JDM turbo import. I was fairly happy with what Just Car quoted me and went with them, interestingly I had also considered Shannons as I had heard good things about them but when I checked online I also saw they didn't offer an option for a daily driven car but by the sound of it I should have given them a call about it.
when my insurance comes up for renewal I will be giving Shannons a call to see how they compare.
