Enthusiast Car Insurance
We understand that being an enthusiast is a way of life. That’s why we design insurance to cover classic, vintage, modified or imported cars.
What can Shannons Car Insurance cover?
Our car insurance has the benefits that car enthusiasts need, even for collectable cars. These include:
Your choice of repairer, or we can manage the repair process for you
Shannons gives you the option to choose your own repairer or we can manage the repair process for you. If you want to choose your own repairer, please contact us using webchat (available via Claim Online) or call 13 46 46 to talk to a claims specialist. Or let Shannons take care of the process for you and arrange a suitable repairer from the list of Preferred Repairers. To book your repair, lodge an online claim to get started.
Cover for modifications
Your car is as unique as you are, and making it your own is a passion. So, when it comes to car insurance, you want to be sure your ride is covered, including your modifications, and fitted accessories. Whether it’s performance tuning, new rims, an aero kit, or the latest tech, at Shannons we cover every modification you’ve listed on your policy and every accessory that’s fitted to your car.
Agreed value
Your car isn’t cookie cutter, and neither is its value. At Shannons we recognise your investment, so the agreed value reflects your car’s worth including performance upgrades, aesthetic enhancements and all the modifications listed on your policy.
Windscreen and window glass cover
One excess free windscreen or window glass replacement or repair claim applies for the period of insurance.
Additional benefits
What’s optional
You can add optional covers to your policy for extra premium. Optional covers you've purchased are shown on your certificate.
