I have Hagerty and think they are expensive but their claims department is great-if you need them. No hassles. Today is the first day of my 1 year renewal. I wanted to get others but no call backs after leaving info on one, Emailing another with no response. Jumping through hoops on websites for info they wanted I didn't have readily available it didn't pan out but I'm searching even with my renewal.

Shop around. Some of the suggestions will not be acceptable if you do.

I’ve heard great things about them
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎

I have had Hagerty for ever. I did shop them with others and found Hagerty to be competitive with the others. Never had a claim so I dont know how that that would end up. So far so good.

Hagerty...7 cars...no claims...12 or so years and no issues to date...They will insure a car while it is being restored and the parts... :)

Insurance companies love to take money, hate to pay money. But I use State Farm. They partner with Hagerty to leverage for lower rates (they claim) and I put 2,000 mile year limit on cars. They have never questioned my valuations. One year I had four claims due to massive storm damage and they settled at Classic values. If you have house or any other coverage discounts kick in. I haven't gotten a competing quote in a few years so premiums might be out of line but seem reasonable.

I had 3 claims (really weird happenings on 2 of them in my garage) and the last one my hood molding went aero on a freeway doing 80. Ironically while the claims adjuster was writing an estimate there was a NOS hood molding for BIN 1K on Ebay. 2 days later I called the adjuster and asked as the auction was ending. He said "buy it" as Hagerty was giving me that much for the hood molding in the claim.
