Silver Wheel Insurance

I have Silver Wheel insurance on my 308. Sub 400 a year and it was not overly difficult to get.

Aka i can vouch for it.

Hi Mike,

The insurance broker will likely ask those members of your family to sign a OEF28A - Excluded Driver Endorsement..

Cheers, Nick

 

Sorry guys, that's almost double my premium! I am insured with Zehr!

 

have been on this for years now - i pay $248 a year for my 308, and about $600 for the TR -

they are are great, it works ver simple,

you must have a daily driver and show proof - anyone in your family can drive the car (ferrari) as long as they are over 25 - and you should tell them and put them on the policy , its no extra charge.

My daily insurance, has no idea i have the cars, or i have other insurance, does not interfere with there plan, nor do i have to disclose.

I must recommend once you appraise the car, you make sure you insure at the 19a form which is the value of the car apprasial - therefore, in case of theft, burn or crash, you get your money from the appraisal value.

you will have to have apprasial done every 5 yrs to reflect the market, thats a given, and they are strict on it -

 

I have my car insured as a regular car as I drive it everywhere, but I'm thinking that might now be such a good idea anymore. I've had my centre caps stolen three times this summer and they're $50 a pop! Sucks as I like to take the Fcar once in a while to pick up milk.
Thanks for the tip. I will check them out.

 

probably some of your students getting back at you for yelling at them Esteban

 

Ha! I don't yell at them. I bill them

 

These guys are great and have used them years ago. But remember there is lots of rules and you must have full time insurance on a full time use car!

 

Does these guys insure in BC?

Sounds so much better then getting bent over by ICBC!

 

I moved mine to silver wheels this year and im saving a ton. Should have done it earlier. If you are one of those guys that takes your F-car everywhere then its not for you. The other insurance mentioned is also underwriten by Aviva and the rates are probably close to the same. Silver wheels now has a new policy where they will insure any new car worth over $60gs.

 

I looked at this and also Hagerty.

Hagerty will do higher valued cars, and they do NOT require an appraisal. They work on the market value of the cars.

So that saves you about $30 to $50 a year right there over Silver Wheels because you are not being asked, nor being cancelled, for failure to get an appraisal in a timely manner.

I am also trying to get Hagerty to sponsor things if we can come to an agreement.

They don't care about other drivers in the home, as long as they are not driving the car, and as Big Red says, they sign an OPCF 28A saying they won't drive the car. No one under 25 can.

We are also looking at spare parts coverage thrown in. Just like Aviva's Silver Wheels. Aviva works with Hagerty by the way. Same company, but different arms of it.

I'd like to see if I can get this thing going per my last message. Need some help from you guys so I can compare. I have Silver Wheels as well.

Thanks.

The process of insuring a Ferrari is fairly straight forward.

They know you are not commuting with it on the 401 daily, and they know that it is nor bring parked in front of Walmart, or at work.

So it all comes down to your record, where you live, and the value of the car.

I had never heard of these guys. They use a company called Echelon for their antiques, but the print at the bottom says this:

"*Exotic and Special Interest vehicles underwritten by Aviva Insurance Company."

So it's Silver Wheels. Or Aviva Elite, which also handles Silver Wheels.

Silver Wheels as many of you probably know is a guy named Tony Lant, who I think did a lot of good when it came to collector car insurance. He really got the Silver Wheels name on everyone's tongue, and there was a long time where I swore he insured every collector I came across. I know that Aviva then bought it, and I don't know if Tony is there or not anymore. I never met the man, but I have much respect for what he did.

Personally, I believe in Aviva Elite, and Hagerty. Both Aviva offered. I would just like to work out a plan so that they could sponsor an event, or a lunch, something to give back to the Ferrari enthusiasts around here.

 

No, the rates you are looking at are filed for Ontario only.

What you need to do is speak to a insurance broker in BC. I am sure they will offer something like this, probably via Aviva, but it may not be called Silver Wheels, and it will have different rates because BC has a different insurance system in place. I can't imagine something is not being offered like this in BC.

Hagerty probably are also available in BC. But a BC insurance broker will know for sure.

Thanks.

I will bring some brochures to the fall drive, both Silver Wheels and also Hagerty.

I've spoken to Alex at Daytona, and he would like something in place as well.

Thanks.

 

Since on the topic of saving -

anyone with a 30 yr old or older car apply at the ministry for a "Historic" plate, which is $18 a year for your sticker in Ontario -

 

+1

I just got historic plates, saved quite a bit on stickers.

 

We have been recommending silver wheels for years to our eligible customers. They have a list of conditions but most customers fit into their program. We do the appraisals for silver wheels and they need to be updated every five years or so.
But let me tell you when it comes to a claim they are by far the best insurance company to deal with. I don't have to put my boxing gloves on when they come to the shop.T

There is only one way to fix a ferrari correctly, any deviation is a waste of time and money.

 

How do their rates compare with vehicles valued 80g and higher?

 

80Gs car is $1270 per year.

 

Little more then a bit I as well have historic, though i had not put them on yet and was still using the Cali plates the car came with.
