Reply With QuotePerhaps a ring around those two would give some idea of prices. Ken Tame brokers used to do modified vehicles so try them although I believe he has sold the business recently
You would probably have to try for agreed value which can cost a lot more

Hi
Just wondering who you recommend to insure my 95 transporter with TRAKKA conversion.
The couple of major companies I have called want to value it at its pre conversion amount and it seems a huge hassle to value the modifications.
I'm sure there are companies out there that insure cars that are not stick standard..
A couple I have heard of is Shannon's and Just Cars.
Just seeing what everyone else in my shoes does.
Many thanks for your time.

As Hillbilly pointed out there is Ken Tame, I'm pretty sure the are still around, they are still listed on the Campervan & motorhome of australia club as an insurer.

There is also CIL, they specialise in Recreational vehicles such as caravans and motorhome.
Motorhome insurance Cover Australia - Cost Quote - CIL Insurance
getting a quote from both would be free and you can weight it up against with Shannons and Just Cars.

Thanks..
I did try for an agreed value with NRMA and a 50min phone conversation, you are right, it was quite expensive.

You will find most insurers, independent or not have an underwriter, allianz is one of the largest underwriters.
I would say, he moved his underwriting to Allianz, back in the past you didn't have to state who your underwriter was, but now you do.
Vw extended warranty is under written by Allianz. Commonwealth bank insurance eta
As long as you have read the find print, told them about any modifications and you have a road worthy legal vehicle you are all good.

I can recommend CIL (caravan and RV insurance) celebrating 50 years.
Just paid my brothers insurance renewal for him.

Wow that seems a good quote.
NRMA were $990 for $10000. Also with discounts and no claim bonus.
Thank u all for your input. I will do a call around and see what I come up with..

you will find that the specialist insurers are cheaper as they understand what you are insuring.
I found that when i insured my Boat, a lot of big name companies gave me huge premiums, and conditions such as not being able to see the boat from the road.
When i started to get quotes from boat only insurance companies, after a tip from a mate, the premiums and terms were a lot better.
Found the same when it came to insurance from my Can Am Commander, a motorbike insurance came out better as well.
