Redefining the Sunday Driver

1991 Toyota HiLux Mini Truck

No, we don’t mean that annoying person driving way under the speed limit in front of you. Sunday Driver is a term used by motor enthusiasts alike, when lovingly referring to the special car they take out on rare occasions like…a sunday drive.

As car enthusiasts, there’s one particular trait that binds us together – we all have pride of ownership in our vehicles. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve built your car yourself; have modified it to get the best performance; you only drive the latest model; or whether you simply just use it to get from A to B (keeping it spick and span in the process). People love their cars for different reasons.

Enthusiams from Our Happy Customers

When a potential client is about to enter into an agreement that has counterparty risk, the emphasis that can frighten people off, is that four letter word, R-I-S-K. Being one of your happy clients, I had weighed up that R-I-S-K goes both ways. I, as a client, had researched the ‘balance’ between benefits and potential difficulties – whether or not that balance had to deal with repairs, quality of finish, sum insured, excess, salvage and so on. So, I have made I think, a good decision about balancing R-I-S-K”.

Frequently Asked Questions

As Enthusiasts, we know that some vehicles weren’t perfect when rolling off the factory floor. For that reason, we have made sure these modified vehicles still get the coverage they deserve. Our modified cover requires policyholders to disclose all modifications to their vehicles in order to be covered under the policy. Any modification to the covered vehicles is required to comply with the Australian Design Rules (ADRs) and/or the Australian Vehicle Standards Rules (AVSR). This includes any in-service requirements of the AVSR and compliance with the equivalent regulations of a State or Territory of Australia. 

We know our clients care about their vehicles and wouldn’t hand the keys to someone they don’t trust. For that reason, we can provide lower pricing to our customers by only covering nominated drivers on the policy. You will need to nominate every driver of your vehicle for your vehicle to be covered whilst they are driving. If a driver of the vehicle has an accident and they aren’t nominated or named on the policy, then we won’t cover the accident.

The vehicles we cover don’t normally fit into the daily driver category, so naturally, they often see less use over a given year.  A vehicle that does a lower number of kilometres in a year can be identified by us as a lower risk. Therefore, we can use the odometer information you provide to lower your premium based on the number of kilometres the car travels in a policy year.

This benefit that allows you to choose to keep the salvage of your total loss vehicle. In the case of a total loss, you will be able to take any parts off that vehicle you desire. This will however, require you to collect the vehicle from the holding location and dispose of any unwanted parts yourself at your own expense. This benefit with Enthusiast can either be a automatic or an optional extra, depending on your vehicle’s age. Please see the Policy Disclosure Statement for more information.

Our in-house Australian-based claims team will be on-hand to handle any claim you have with us. They can handle all your claims enquiries via phone or email and are available Monday to Friday between 9am-5pm AEST. Additionally, you can download a claims form from the website at any time to start your claim process.

PLEASE NOTE:

We will cover Modifications which you have listed in your Schedule or given us details of in writing, and which we have accepted.
