Re: Insurance for Ds at AIG - no more..

[pbmain@xxxx]

After reading some postings on insurance, wanted to drop a quick note 
about my recent hassles...

Two weeks ago I called for a quote on adding what would turn out to 
be my future Delorean to my AIG policy. Got a quote, pricing, no 
problem. Move forward a week, I was organizing to pick up the car 
and called AIG to add the car to the policy, and they gave me the 
runaround. First there was some talk about "If we insure Deloreans 
at all" then it was "I'm not sure if we cover Deloreans in Michigan", 
then after 20 minutes of going back and forth, they give me the 
excuse "We cannot add you to the policy because you could take the 
car to a car show and we don't want to get involved if something 
happened to other exotic cars at such events". This was definitely 
strange...

It gets better.. (kind of) So, I ranted and raved to no avail...then 
hung up, called right back, and spoke to someone who asked a new set 
of questions, and they added the Delorean to the policy without a 
hassle.

Three days later, I receive a call from AIG saying that they added 
the car in error because there was a chance I "might take the car to 
car shows" and that they would honor the existing policy for the 6 
months, but I would have to search for insurance after that time.

So! It's over to Hagerty or something in April...
