Yep, I'm with Shannons as well. Mainly because no one else would touch my 61 Mini, and then all the benefits of being insured by motoring enthusiasts...
Plus I only pay $130 a year (laid up cover only :( ).

I have my "fleet" insured with shannons and have done for quite a few years now, my yearly policy was about $600 for four cars (3rd party fire and theft),
last year I changed the policy on my zed car to (full comp. $12000 agreed val.) for a extra $80.00.

The only problem I find with shannons is having to listen to a scratchy recorded message from glenn ridge every time you need to call them.

I think you might have to put another couple of datsuns on your policy to get a better rate

good luck,

i rate you don, not very highly but i rate you

If you are young and want to drive a modified car, that is what you have to pay. I once considered buying a SS commodore but the insurance almost outweighed the purchase price, all because I had no insurance rating.

we have all been there. just have to suck it up and not hit any thi g, other wise if you dont get it, you can always pay off some one elses mercedes you hit and wil never own. thats how i see it.

they pay up to $20million liability. I know of one claim for $5million.

dam well wish i wasnt under 25 and a p plater i pay like over a grand per yr with 1500 excess! this sucks

i love shannons, having worked for a insurer previously, they are to expensive and restrictive with thier agreed values.
I have never insured with them even while working for them, oh wait, once in 1999 for 8 months then went to shannons.

i think they are hard to beat and offer great fair polices and prices with thier underwriting. good agreed values too. even thinking of putting house with them soon

yeah shannons do a good deal especially if you have a couple.. i have two $12000 and $6000 total yearly cost $525

I pay $350 for $5k insurance on my 1k (through shannons), and if it gets written off i keep the car for no extra charge.

i couldnt imaging any insurance place insuring a $12,000 car for only $240. $600 sounded alrite to me :/
