Jumping on board the custom-car insurance bandwagon, mainstream player GIO is now offering insurance to those of us who take a little more pride in our rides.

To celebrate, the guys set up a photo studio at the recent Summernats event down in Canberra, where 120 performance-car enthusiasts had their car photographed over the course of a four-day period.

The very sumptuous Canberra Raiderettes came along for the ride to cheer on the activity, with everything from expert airbrushing to big chromed automotive engineering; Americana, Aussie muscle cars and the latest modern monsters zooming in front of the lens, with owners then having the photographs parked in their inbox.

Kathryn Imberti, Marketing Advisor for GIO Motor, had this to say:
“Car owners jumped at the free opportunity to have a professional shot of their ride taken as an extra souvenir of the day.”

“As we’ve just launched our new customised insurance for high-performance and modified cars, it was great to meet true performance-car junkies and see just how much investment  goes into their ‘ride and toy’.”

GIO Custom Car Insurance cover includes features such as a lifetime guarantee on GIO authorised repairs, the option to pay premiums by the month, eligible customers get a discount for holding a GIO CTP Green Slip on the same vehicle and optional protected No Claim Bonus and Hire Car after event cover.
