Hi,

Both our Daily's (2004 Jaguar S Type Sport, 1995 Honda Passport LX) are with GEICO - Full Coverage, $1k deductible - $1100/yr.

My Boxster is with Leland-West, Full Coverage, $22k Agreed Value, $1k deductible, 5k mi./yr. limit - $264 (it's a Sunny Sunday and occaisional Joyrider).

52, Clean Record (both of us), SCCA National Competition License, State Certified Driving Instructor (I don't think this helps, but it's there)...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Well if so, that would explain the HIGH rate I am paying, maybe he still needs pay someone to carry his boom box

About $950/year on a 2000 2.7 as a daily driver in CA through Mercury. I think it's a $500 deductible with a high level of liability and I have a spotless record. I see that you're in LA - the point about rates varying by state is correct, but I've found Mercury to be good and CA has an insurance board that regulates insurance company customer service and Mercury is always near the top. I've never had to make a claim so I can't speak to that end of the experience, but the CA insurance board is what got me comfortable with it.

I also have a separate renter's policy through them with addidional "umbrella-ish" coverage on it for me so I get a small discount on the car insurance, but I don't think it would be much more than $1000 a year without that discount.
