Not anti Shannons but they will only insure cars that are locked away at night.
Not all cars are that lucky to have a warm bed at night.
Daisy the Kombi is a street kid.
As long as it is stock NRMA will insure it. I have Daisy (1982 air cooled) insured for $8k with them

Yeah, Wolf only has a carport, and not behind a locked gate. Shannon's didn't have a problem.

Not that it will apply in Brisbane, but the RACV told me they'd insure my '75 kombi for $5000, even though I paid less, because that is the book value for a '75 kombi. They hadn't even looked at it! :o

I spoke to shannons in Brisbane about a month ago. They said they will not insure my kombi because it was a camper?????
They said i should talk to someone who insures caravans etc. :o:o
So how did you guys get insurance with them????😠

Maybe you spoke to someone who was on their way out to lunch or going home!! Actually had a Shannons' rep look at and value the camper at Valla and didn't blink an eye. A few months later when I actually did something about getting it changed over form another insurance company I called them up and again, no questions raised because it was a camper.

I have found that Shannons will Insure whatever you want, so long as it is legally registered, for whatever price you are happy to pay the premium on.
I insured my Oval for double what I paid for it, cos it is worth double what I paid for it (I think so anyway). no prob, just a higher premium. :thumb
they were the only one's who would full comp my camper being more than 30 tears old. :thumb:thumb

We have 3 cars with shannons including the daily driver Beetle on third party only.

It is important to tell them if the vehicles have immobilisers or are in locked garages, or not.
They are very cost competetive if you have a daily driver and show cars. Lets face it, they know you can't drive all of the cars at the same time?
I know a guy with 5 cars and it worked out he was getting the 5th one free. When he added it to his policy with the other cars it went up by only $50, but on its own it would have been $300.
I know a few people that have had to make claims, and they felt very comfortable throughout the whole process.
