Thanks

Yeah, Shannons (http://www.shannons.com.au/) is the main one and also our main sponsor. I have both my Eureka and my daily driver (V6 Camry) insured with then, and from memory it's less then $800 for the both of them, comprehensive and includes 1 free windscreen replacement (for both vehicles) every 12 months. Mind you, they're not perfect. A mate at work is also with Shannons, and he had to replace the windscreen on his daily driver. Lets just say it took a lot of effort to get them to cover the windscreen cost.

There used to be several others around, but they seem to have merged into one, Lumley Special Vehicles (http://www.lsvinsurance.com.au/existing-customers.html). One of the other companies that merged into Lumley was Vigil. I just spent a bit of time looking for their site, and you get directed to Lumley. You also get a lot of links to various forums (Walkenshaw to Lexus forums, so a varying range), that say Vigil used to be fantastic, until around 2007, when the merger happened and they became "less than good". Unique Car Insurance, Torque (wasn't that a bike specialist?) Prestige Car Insurance, along with Vigil formed Lumley.
