I had forwarded this to a friend (with a Jag) who sent me the original post from the Jag list: Here is the first post (from the owner): -- About a month ago (Thanksgiving day, actually) I was stoppe
I don't usually get involved in defending my profession but this calls for some response. It looks to me like that Jag owner needs a "nasty lawyer" to fight for him. I assume that Farmers is the insu
My understanding has been that Hagerty will pay the actual cost of a repair to previous condition up to the agreed value on the policy, and that they will allow owners to take the car to an approved
IANAL, nor am I an insurance agent, but... that someone from Hagerty is probably trying to settle the claim for as little as possible. If it were me, I'd have a real body shop, one that specializes i

And I have had Hagerty: 1. Once automatically increased the agreed value without me asking. 2. Increased the agreed value another time after I submitted Photos. 3. And this last time a big increase i
That guy should be thankful that the hummer didn't pop up on top of the car and kill him. That's the problem with those hummers, they kill alot of people in small cars. That's why I would never buy o
Ok .. I have my 66 BJ8 insured for 45K with Hagerty .. Granted I did the wok myself but it is wonderful .. with a Cape International Hardtop and Heritage leather interior .. Should I up the coverage?
