[DML] Re: Insurance Carriers

[PaulF52093@xxxx]

Dear Richard -- GEICO was about to cancel my policy when I bought my DeLorean 
(new) in 1983 from the Consolidated "fleet" in Columbus. I reminded them 
that I had been a policyholder with them since 1966, and they relented. Then 
they couldn't figure out what to charge me, and I wound up getting excellent 
coverage for rates befitting a small Toyota (NOT that I complained!) I've 
had no problems with GEICO (which also insures a Saab for me) and the rates 
are as reasonable as any I've ever seen.

The bottom line: GEICO does insure D's ... but not without a battle. Maybe 
you should try again. Another ploy: get statistics from the Insurance 
Institute for Highway Safety regarding claims history forn the DeLorean 
marque. It's a pain, but I'd bet you'd find a much better claims record than 
for other cars, and that might do the trick for you. It helped in my case, 
although that's many years ago.

Good luck!
