I'm looking for a good broker in the durban area to insure my van with for business use.
Past experience with insurance left me wanting some very specific stuff from this policy.
I currently have a 2010 chev corsa utility 1.4 base with aircon, gamma shape with 180000 on the clock. Vehicle has had 2 accidents. Cost of first repair roughly 40k. Cost of second repair 55k. Insurance insists on a value of just under 100k for the van and tell me the true value will be calculated only in the event of theft or write off ( in other words they'll screw me nicely).
My requirements :
Insured for business use with 2 specified drivers. Business is a security company . Vehicle used for transport of staff and visiting of staff on sites.
Canopy cover of 10k.
Courtesy vehicle is stipulated as a 1.4 ldv with canopy for 30 days.
Vehicle Is parked in a secure area at night with satellite tracking on it.
Insurance is currently charging me around 1400 a month for the above. Wanting to get a new van and I'm being quoted in the 2500 a month range for a new corsa exactly as my old one. That's like a whole new vehicle installment and I believe I'm getting screwed.
Only accident I've claimed on was 31/07/2014, have my licence for 4 years and I'm 24. Those are my risk factors.
So ... insurance recommendations please?
And does anybody know what's a fair value for my van to be insured at?
