Frequently asked questions
With RACV Insurance, you can insure your car for the market value or agreed value, depending on your policy.
Market value

- Comprehensive (choice of market or agreed value)
- Third Party Fire and Theft
- Third Party Property Damage
Agreed value
This is how much RACV Insurance agrees to insure your vehicle for during the term of your policy. You can choose from within a value range. You’ll get agreed value with these policies:
- Complete Care®
- Comprehensive (choice of agreed or market value)
Renewing your policy
RACV Insurance considers the changes in your vehicles agreed value using local market values. Check your renewal notice for any changes.

No matter who’s driving, RACV Motor Insurance covers all licensed drivers provided they meet policy conditions and have your permission to drive your vehicle.^
You don’t need to list all additional drivers using your vehicle, but it’s worth considering based on how frequently others drive it and any additional excesses that may apply to unlisted drivers.
Your car insurance premium may change if another driver is listed on your policy.
If an unlisted driver is found at fault for an incident while driving your vehicle, you may have to pay an additional excess on top of your basic excess.
For further details on excess charges based on your policy, read the Premium, Excesses and Discounts Guide (PED).

If you choose to arrange your own repairer, make sure you have selected an authorised repairer who meets industry standards. If anything goes wrong (like faulty work), it won’t be covered in your policy.
