    Last summer I hit a pothole in my 430 new wheel, tire and alignment was close to 4K so I put in a claim to my insurance which they paid. I just got renewal notices on my three cars P Cayenne, Elise and 430. They hit me with three points on my license with $600 surcharges on each car for THREE years. After that they will take off one point every two years but only if I get no additional points. Till this incident I have a spotless record.
    A friend of Pat's sells insurance and can save 3K on the lotus and 430 if I switch to Grundy.
    The savings sound great. Anybody have any experience with them?

    I just switched to Grundy from Hagerty for the F430 and like mentioned previously very reasonable rates...seems like from gsworld2014 they are worth it.!

    Let's see:

    $600 X 3 X 3 = $5.4K > $4K

    They are making way too much money off you!

    I have used Grundy since 1999. I have made two claims, neither had huge impact on my rate. One claim was for a 308 that was totaled in 2001 and another was for replacing a front bumper on my 355 around 2010.

    I have had Grundy on my 16M for four years now. No claims yet. However, they were literally almost exactly half the rate quote that I got from Hagerty. Also, Hagerty has a 2500 miles/yr. limit on their policies. Grundy has none. Go with Grundy.

    Hagerty treated me like :eek: (you get the idea). Grundy are reasonable and fair. Would rather use them until the sun burns out...

    Info Alert: Speaking of Hagerty, one stipulation they also have regarding special interest and agreed valued cars is that the insured must also have a "modern" car that is newer than about 6 years to drive, otherwise, they won't insure the toys.

    I use Grundy, seems to be very easy to deal with and cost effective. No claims but my 360 and Vette, valued at $100k cost about $1300 per year. No mileage limits, but must be garaged, and each driver on the policy has to have a daily driver.

    Ask Grundy about the MVP plan- multiple-vehicle program- which can include daily drivers... :):);)

    I have Grundy for 3 of my non daily drivers. I’ve been with them 20 years. My annual premium is about $1800 for all 3. One is a 575M insured for $150k.

    When i was with Grundy, they told me i had to be going on a drive to events, like a car show, a cars and coffee, things like that. They said if i had stopped at a store and something happened i wouldnt be covered. I didnt care for a stipulation like that so i left them

    Thats what the agent told me. When i first bought my 355 i went with grundy cause the price was rite even tho the agent told me this. When i bought my f430 i called grundy to inform them of my new purchase and they tell me the same thing again so i didnt want that restriction so i shopped and went with progressive. Progressive raised the price pretty good on me after the first year so i shopped again and went with geico. So ill see how this goes

    I wasn't aware that Geico or Progressive offer agreed value coverage and I think that's what we need on our cars no?

    That is not at all how my policy reads. I’ve been with them a long time and the only thing they don’t cover is track use.
