Time to check your insurance

As most, if not all, classics are appreciating assets, it’s important to review your insurance cover on a regular basis to make sure that you are adequately protected. This comes as vehicle numbers are increasing on our roads, congestion continues to worsen, and the frequency of crashes trends steadily upwards.

Colin from Protecta Insurance told us, “A number of our policyholders have been hit by uninsured third parties [recently], which highlights the need to have your own car covered even if you aren’t at fault for the accident. That way, your car is repaired immediately, and it is up to the insurance company to recover the costs of the repair from the uninsured party, which can often take several years to pay off the debt.”

If you don’t already have insurance for your classic vehicle, it’s worth getting a quote — as owners, drivers, and enthusiasts too, the team understands what classic car owners want from their insurer. Call them today on 0800 776 832, or visit protectainsurance.co.nz.
