My current insurance is about to finish in September. I'm looking for something a little cheaper. I have a friend that uses www.Grundy.com for his '98 Cobra. It's some kind of full coverage, no milage limit specialty insurance. He's paying $240 for a full year. He drives it daily.

I went to the Grundy site and they quoted me $536 for 1 year on my Evo 8. I'll be 24 in August. I have no points on my record. I put down $35,000 for the worth of my car.

When I called Grundy about the insurance, the lady on the phone told me that they couldn't insure my car because it's too new and they couldn't put a 2 year depreciation on it yet.

Anyone wanna chime in on this? I'm looking for a similar insurance to Grundy, but someone who can insure my car.

 

Whats up DR. EVo,

I use www.unitrindirect.com to insure my Typhoon and EVo, its the cheapest insurance I have found, go get a quote. Also answer my AIM's.

 

Hum, Grundy told me they did not consider the EVO a collector car, oh well. You just got to shop around for some no name insurance company. I ended up paying about 600/6mo for the EVO and my 94 Ford P/U. Thats with all the discounts: Own my home, married, no tix/accidents, old man, etc.

 

What's up 1BADSUV? Sorry, I have a habit of leaving my buddy list open when I'm not around. AIM sometime so we can talk. It's been a while. How've you been?

Scottybob,
That's weird that they told you that. Your insurance is not too bad either. I pay just over $900 for 6 months. That's single, no kids, 1 car & and I'm 23 until Aug, 17th.

 

Yeah Grundy and Haggerty were a collector / vintage car insurance company I thought.
I have my vette thru Haggerty. No mileage limitations but I had to prove its kept in a garage and also its not to be used for commuting to work, etc.

 

Dayum!!!! UniDirect just quoted me $2889 for 1 year. Guess I better shop around more.

 

Do you own the car outright? If you have a loan, make sure you satisfy it's requirements for insurance coverages. I don't think the collectors insurance companies provide you with all that is required of a car with a loan.

Also, if you live in a State that requires uninsured motorist coverages, you might have problems getting insured by the collector car insurers.

 

? $536 a year is expensive? what the... I pay double that in 6month! lol

 

Well, grundy insures my friends '98 Cobra and that's nothing too special.


ScottyBob, what insurance company do you use?

 

how much is your insurance now?

 

You shouldn't be *****ing with just $536 a year. I just got me yellow evo last week.

At The insurance company:
THE INS. GUY: well here's your payment for every six month, $1740
ME: what the ****?
THE INS. GUY: well, yeah!
ME: can't it be any cheaper than this?
THE INS. GUY: well lets see how much you'll be paying if you are now 21?
THE INS. GUY: here it is, now its $900 every six month
ME: Wow that's a big different, almost half.
ME: Ok I'll take it.

Man go ***** somewhere else. haha j/k.
