Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can anyone please tell me who will insure my manx?
i have asked my general insurer but they didnt know what a manx is.

Shannons , and they will know exactley what you are talking about.
You will also need to have an imobiliser fitted to keep them happy in regards to theft , which with my old car they were happy enough with a hidden kill switch

thanks, i have a kill switch so that covered. do you have to have comprihensive cover or do they have 3rd party coverage?
thanks
matt

I may be wrong but i believe they only have comprehensive which will more than pay for itself in the event of a disaster with the rising values of manx's

thanks, down here in the lower south east of south australia you get some funny looks when you try and explain what it is!!! And even the rego papers don't help cause it is listed as a 1959 vw tourer they don't even have any vw listed before 1970 something

shannons have the meyers manx listed as a type of car in their database.

Shannons do both Comprehensive and 3rd party. My 3rd party is about $150 yr. I did have comprehensive on my last buggy which was $550yr.

My Iguana is insured with them for $45 000 and it costs under $600 a year ($32.50 a mth - $390 p/yr)

A big thanks to all!!! Hope to have to have it insured and on the road in the next couple of weekS!! (even with our cold weather)
