All the classic auto insurer's have good rates as the "loss ratio's" for this segment of in the insurance industry is so low.

Hagarty is the largest classic car insurer and also the largest advertiser in this insurance in the classic car segment. That alone does NOT make them the best!

We had a claim with Hagarty when the tents fell in Scottsdate at the Russo Steele auction back in 2010. 2 cars were heavily damaged. Hagarty had over 200 of the damaged vehicles insured. They were NOT particularly easy to deal with concerning the claim. Pretty obvious what caused the damage HOWEVER what Hagarty wanted to pay for repairs and the real world cost of repair were 2 different facts. It took 5 months to settle with Hagarty. Finally got a check for the damage and sold the car damaged.

The second car was insured with Heacock. They were very attentive, paid for damages and the car was redone.
