Insurance

Post by 85BJ73 »

Ok, not too sure where to ask, but what insurance do most of you run, and from which company?

Cheers guy's, I appreciate this.
Funnily enough, I am with Barley Insurances now, but I wanted to see if there were any better deals, by asking those who have been in this longere than me, so, once again, thanks all. :D

I have found AMI excellent. Had a small incident last year that involved a couple of windows and a new roof needing to be fitted. No questions asked.

Do you guys with trailer queen trucks have insurance? Third party fire and theft or nothing?

I'm with AMI. Two friends with AMI have had no issues with pay outs after incidents. I was told as long as warrantable and in my case, certified and not in mud plugs or timed events, I am covered. They do like to know what modifications have been made and may look more closely if mechanical lockers in particular are fitted, they are still an insurance company so if they can attribute a particular modification to causing the accident, they will no doubt try. I'm told I pay higher premium for privilege of them covering me while using my ute for what it designed for. Will point out my friends lost their no claims bonus.

I'm with FMG, all my vehicles are covered for offroad and farm use.
I don't own a farm, but I know people who do. :D
