Hagerty Dropped Me! No one else wants me!
I know there are alot of threads discussing the pro's/con's of the various collector car insurance companies, but at this point I seem to be running out of options! Why? Because I am 23, and got a speeding ticket.
Hagerty has insured my 69' for the past 4 years with my father listed as primary and me as secondary since I was underage. However, they require a perfect driving record for youths and with a speeding ticket - they booted me. Never had an accident in any car, no reckless driving or anything, just a ticket in my now 8 years driving. They were not willing to debate this.
So I started calling around, Grundy, Classic Car, American Insurance, J&C, some random small vendors in NJ, Nationwide is refering me elsewhere.
As soon as they answer I say "I have 2 questions, I am under 25, and I have a ticket" I got past the 25 with one, but ticket sealed it. No one else will consider it. EVEN if I register the car to a parent and me as secondary. I think Grundy said they allow family members occasional driving, but I can't really be listed. My dad doesnt even touch the car, its just me, I need to be listed.
The final issue is that now the only car I own is the Camaro, since I live in Manhattan, I do not have a daily driver and regular insurance (I am on my Dad's). They won't consider me for that either!
This is my car, owned since I was 14 and a foot shorter than I am now! I would like to drive it hahah! Any idea where to go?
BTW - I was paying $250 for $35k coverage...I would like to avoid paying some insane rate for my age either if possible.
I can register in CT with my Dad, or MA with my mom is that makes a difference. Car is in a locked storage facility, under 2k miles a year.
Hmmmm...
Thanks
