What does market value mean?
Market value means we work out how much your car’s worth at the time you make a claim, and then cover your car for that amount.
To work out the market value, we use things like local market prices, your car’s age, its condition, and any modifications or extras.
This is different to agreed value, which is where you choose the amount to insure your car for (from a range we give you).
With Third Party Fire & Theft Insurance, we cover your car for its market value, up to a maximum of $10,000 (minus any deductions).
Are my car’s modifications and extras included?
Yes, your car’s mods (like alloy wheels, spoilers and tow bars) are automatically covered.
If you have Third Party Fire & Theft Insurance and you make a claim, we include your extras and modifications in the market value of your car (up to a maximum of $10,000).
If a learner driver uses my car, do I need to list them on my policy?
You don’t need to list them on your policy unless they’re the registered owner of the car.
So, for example, if you own your car and your son or daughter is learning to drive, we’ll cover them even if they’re not listed.
Who repairs my car if I make a claim?
If your car’s damaged by fire or by someone trying to break into it, we’ll arrange for one of our Partner Repairers to fix it.
We have nearly 400 Partner Repairers across Australia, and we back the the workmanship of their repairs with a lifetime guarantee.
Things you should know
You’re covered for the market value of your car, up to $10,000.
Your car’s covered if we agree it was the other driver's fault and you have their name, address and rego number.
We cover you up to $75 per day for a hire car until your car’s recovered and repaired, your claim’s paid as a total loss, or for 21 days (whichever’s first). We don’t cover running costs for the hire car like petrol, tolls or a GPS.
You’re covered if you’ve told us you’re using your own personal car for ridesharing and pay any extra premium. Only owners listed on the policy are covered when using the car for ridesharing.
