A Guide to Luxury Car Insurance
SC Luxury Car insurance is designed to provide coverage for your luxury vehicle in case of accidental damage or theft. It can also protect you financially by covering the costs of repairing or replacing another person's vehicle if you are at fault in an accident. Our luxury car insurance policy allows you to choose between insuring your vehicle for an agreed amount or for its market value.
“More than half of Australian drivers (58%) narrowly avoid a car crash at least once a month, while 18% of drivers said they experienced close calls on a weekly basis.”
——Australian Road Safety Foundation
Who Should Consider Luxury Car Insurance?
Comprehensive Car Insurance can be very helpful in case your luxury car is damaged in an accident where you are at fault, as it can cover the cost of repairs or even replace your car entirely if it is deemed a write-off. Additionally, if your car is stolen, comprehensive car insurance can provide you with the agreed or market value so that you can purchase a replacement.
Third-party property damage (TPPD) insurance is a standalone policy that covers the costs you may be liable for if you damage or write off someone else's car while at fault. However, if you only have this type of cover, there will be no coverage for any damage sustained to your own car.
