Well, I've never been pulled over, so I guess it's just how you drive it. Driven next to, behind, in front, opposit of cops.
Yes, private seller will save you a few grand
But as for insurance..... lol.... You shoulda researched before deciding to get a skyline....
As far as I know, there are only 3 insurance companies that will insure a skyline, as others don't do imports.
But it doesn't matter who's name it is under, because they will charge you by the youngest driver....
The 3 companies are, Just Car, Shannon, Famous. Shannon don't insure people under 25. So that leaves you Just Car and Famous.
Belief it or not, they charge pretty much the same price lol, maybe a couple of dollars different. For a P plater to insure a skyline = lots of money.
Full comp = 3k or so, 3rd party fire & thief is about 650. But with Just Car, they recently changed their pricing, if you choose your excess to be like $1600, then you only have to pay about $1700 premium
But it's probably best to look into it before you buy the car
