As the topic says I'm looking for a company that offers comprehensive insurance on an rhd vehicle, td meloche doesn't offer this coverage. I'm obviously looking for this coverage to cover me in the event of theft, hail and/or hitting an animal etc.

thanks all

MOST companies don't offer it for new clients. I still have a couple of guys on the books that snuck them in before the insurance companies really figured out what to do with these things but that is it. They've been warned that if they ever take the vehicle off the policy and put it back on, no comprehensive (or collision for that matter), just PLPD.

I'm with meloche monnex and have comprehensive and even glass coverage on my Subaru sambar. I got in before the non comprehensive rules. That being said, just insured my Honda beat and they wouldn't give me anything more than plpd. Times they are a changing

This is news to me, why do insurance companies refuse to put comprehensive on RHD cars? I would love to hear the reasoning behind this? :rolleyes:

so if you have a pulsar and it hails and your hood and roof are effed how are they going to quote you on parts? how are they going to replace your parts, but then you will say what about rhd cars that have lhd replicas in north america?

all in all its just to big a hassle and going out of there way to fix your car. if anything they just write it off, once less rhd car for them to have to worry about. it blows i know...

so far no shops will look at my soarer to straighten my frame. its not like it matters whether your car is rhd, lhd, or freaking center drive. lots of places have policies against rhd vehicles.
