[Tom Reynolds (kjtar]

Response from Hagerty wrt collector car insurance on a 1988 BMW M3 (with a 
daily driver of a 1988 MB 300E). 
Sigh.

Hello Mr Reynolds!

Thank you for e-mail.  Although we'd like to be able to insure every vehicle 
and every person, our current program does not permit us to do so.  In order to 
be eligible for our program, you would need to have a regular use vehicle that 
is in the late 1990s or newer.  Also, a collector vehicle that is newer than 
those manufactured in 1987 must be a limited production vehicle with a very low 
odometer reading.  I'm sorry that you do not qualify at this time. 

Thank you for your interest in Hagerty Insurance.

Dear Hagerty,
        I've been recommended to you by several people on the lists I frequent 
(Ferrari mailing list, Mercedes mail list, E30 M3 Special Interest Group) but I 
think there might be one problem that would keep me from signing with your 
company if I were to buy a 1988 BMW M3.  My daily driver is a 1988 
Mercedes-Benz 300E.  I can provide pictures of my car ('Providence') and I can 
testify to the fact that I keep the car in great condition, heck, I drove from 
Oklahoma to Georgia to get it!  Anyway, if there's any way that I could be 
insured by your company, I'd appreciate hearing from you.  I would want an 
agreed value policy for around $20K, the M3 would be garaged and only used for 
weekend pleasure drives and/or BMWCCA car "show and shine" type events.  
Thanks very much,
Tom Reynolds
