Insurance savings for car-loving families

Owning an everyday car and a special interest car often means being faced with the inconvenience of two (or more) insurance policies, and sometimes seperate insurers. What's worse is that more often than not, this also equates to paying more than you should to get the required cover.

Now, specialist insurance provider Enthusiast Underwriting has launched an innovative policy range dubbed 'Family Fleet' that will eliminate the need for multiple policies, saving money at the same time.

Of particular interest, its 'Enthusiast Collection' policy offers combined cover for 'classic' and 'everyday' vehicles on a single policy with discounts of up to 30 per cent on normal premium rates, and can be further expanded to provide cover for regularly-driven special interest cars and even some business vehicles.

Best of all, for those of us with cars in storage elsewhere, insured vehicles don't even need to be kept at the same address. Family members who live in different suburbs or even different states are welcome to participate, one policy covering all members, no matter their driving record or age.

In the event of a claim, any premium or excess increase will apply only to the individual's vehicle and not the entire policy.

Agreed value cover is available on every type of vehicle insured with policy benefits including rating one protection, choice of repairer, excess-free glass replacement and, on some models, no-cost salvage retention.

Enthusiast Underwriting has offices across Australia and is backed by Assetinsure Pty Ltd.
