How to insure an E30 Touring?

[cory58]

Give Hagerty a call. You should always insure your classic cars with Hagerty. I had my wagon insured for 15,000 dollars, full coverage. I had a premium plan too. It was 309 for the year.

Just go to Hagerty's website and request a quote.

Hagerty would not give me a policy. The person I talked to on the phone was very evasive about why they would not cover my Touring. As I questioned him during the conversation, he gave me 3-4 different excuses. I think the reason is because I told them it would be a semi-daily driver.

What about getting coverage that doesn't suck for those of us who DD our cars and aren't lucky enough to have garages? Hagerty doesn't do that, do they? I don't have a touring, but getting good coverage on my E30 is still a concern of mine. I read something about Grundy offering something like that, but that's it.

My Liberty Mutual policy has no garage requirement and I think the only driving restriction is less than 7k miles per year. Join the BMWCCA and get discounted rates and guarantee of only BMW OEM parts for repairs.

Well that rules that out.

Try American Collectors:

I have both of my E30's covered with them. Also, try calling Hagerty again. One agent may have been a pain in the ass, doesn't mean the next one to answer can't help either.

Not necessarily. I told them up front I would only be daily driving the cars part time. Since these policies are not collector or stated value policies, they will probably just charge more for unlimited miles.
