No, no, I think it is you that is lacking clarity. For example, the title of this thread was "What else is in your garage". It wasn't "Please post your pompous, self-righteous opinion here". You should probably start a new thread in the lounge section for that. Keep in mind though, opinions are kinda like anuses - everyone's got one but no-one wants to hear yours.
Meanwhile, everyone else is having a bit of fun showing off their cool chit and admiring other members' cool chit. You're not required to take part if you'd rather not. I'd post a pic myself, but I really don't have much cool chit outside of the Boxster and a pretty nice tool collection. Wish I had that 328...

Does the rate go down the more cars you have, because in theory you can only be driving 1 car at a time, or are you paying full rate for each car, or do you take them off and on full insurance because you have one for each season?
|
My experience is that unless the car's insurance symbol indicates high risk the rate drops per vehicle the more you have, also depends on the number of drivers in household.

Not only does the rate go down the more you own but hopefully you can put some of them on classic car insurance like Haggerty which is really cheap. I've got two on classic car insurance, a '66 and a '91.
You can even make a case to put a fairly new car on classic insurance if you don't drive it much and have other daily drivers. I'm debating when to switch the Boxster over.

How many miles do they allow typically for a car that is not driven much? Stated value? I always thought stated value was higher in premiums.

The juxtaposition of those two is so wrong, yet so right! Almost like putting a double decker western bacon cheeseburger dripping with bbq sauce and fries next to a schnitzel with the right kind of mustard...yum!
True car guys!!!!

Thank you. No it is a turbo, I purchased it new in fall of '89 ('90 model car). Has about 12,000 km. I love rotary engines. This was our first sports car.
