    Another Insurance compay (ontario)

    So... I've never heard of these guys before but the insurance company Royal Facility will insure RHD vehicles (with an appraisal). Found out through an insurance broker in London called McFarlan Rowlands. Just thought I would throw that out there for everyone.

    question is will he do it for a fair rate? every time i get a quote for RHD it's considerably high.

    My rates are actually lower with my Celica than they were with a LHD Integra I had while I was waiting for my Celica. I have a broker that deals with ING, I'd rather not tell you exactly who, but they are in Kitchener/Waterloo.

    Facility in Ontario is the "last-resort" insurer, underwritten by a small insurance company (Nordique, currently).

    The normal Facility client is basically someone who is considered uninsurable under normal circumstances, like DUI offences, high demerit points, etc.

    RHD is a weird circumstance where it's not really the driver who is the perceived risk, it's the vehicle!


    In my case with State Farm, even though I'm 40-something and have a flawless record, I have to go through a 6-month "probation" with Facility before they will bring me over to State Farm. (kind of idiotic really, but they are just hedging their bets I guess!)

    The bottom line is that full coverage (comp and collision) with a 12k appraisal on an R32 GT-R is about $120 a month with Facility, and will drop to about $85 with State Farm.
