Why I joined the Club!

After having just accessorised my Nissan Patrol ready for weekend and Outback travel, it occurred to me that the value of the vehicle and its accessories were going to be hard to replace. Having read the PDS of my current insurer I wasn’t confident that my accessories would be covered, nor was I confident that they would support me while enjoying my 4×4 in some of the remote areas I was hoping to travel. Club 4×4, with its transparent inclusions gave me the confidence that they were the right partner to protect my pride and joy, as well as my financial investment.

The claims process.

Within weeks of my new policy with Club 4×4, Melbourne got hit with a hail storm causing damage across my vehicle. I dropped into my local and preferred auto repair workshop for a quote for the repair. It was made very clear to me that if I was with any of the big insurers, that they would not even look at the car without an approved claim as their quote would likely be rejected. It was as simple as mentioning ‘Club 4×4’ as my insurer and the local shop said that would be no problem, commenced with the quote and were ready to have the vehicle repaired within a week. Having family and friends waiting months to get their damage repaired, I was thankful to have chosen an insurer who didn’t stuff around and just got the job done.

Thank you to the team at Club 4X4

Is Touring Getting Too Expensive?
