Re: collector car insurance
[ QUOTE ]
I recently learned something very interesting that hopefully will be of help to others.
When I purchased my first collector car I called one of the major collector car insurance companies and obtained insurance. As happens to most of us this soon became an addiction and I continued to add cars calling the same insurance company each time. Later I decided to get my dealers license and then added garage liability insurance using the same insurer.
I felt confident that the insurance company was treating me right on the price, but recently I decided to bid out my insurance needs to the other major collector car insurers. The quotes came in almost 40% less than what I was being charged. Point is if you have stayed with the same insurer for some time you might be surprised what you will find out when you bid this out.

Funny thing,
My dealership has been with the same insurance company for the past 20 years and I decided to get quotes from 2 other companies this fall.Much to my surprise,the quotes came in 40% cheaper!!! Broker explained to me that this is a soft insurance market and they're canibalizing each others business to grab as much money as they can to make up for the investment shortfall they're experiencing.
