locutus_of_bris Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 Here is a list from another website. You might have seen it already, but if not might be worth giving some of them a try. I did also find some of the contact numbers out of date, but you get that. I ended up going with suncorp, but at my age it's no huge prob.

JiMb0 Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 Out of interest, how did you as a 17 y/o get the car in the first place .. I mean financially ? But it outright ? Loan ? Parent ? Did you ever think it would be wise to look into insuring the car before you got it ? Sounds like a little too rash a descision made without much thought going into the whole scenario unfortunately.

R33 GIRLY Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 Hey there... Try Famous Car Insurance, they have just started insuring grey imports and give quotes a little better than Just Car Insur. 0422 229 220 craig/chris, i am bad with names I'm 24, rating 7!, 3 x 3pt speeding offences, and own a r33 GTS-t.

Guest neoGT-25 Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 LOL ok thanks R33 GIRLY, but will they insure a 17 year old? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/10099-insurence-for-34-na-on-a-17yr-old/page/2/#findComment-204570 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiMb0 Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 Neo : Anyone will insure a 17 y/o ... for a price ... you can't expect to have a car like that, be 17 and not pay top dollar ... I was 17 when I first got my R33 GTS-t, except I had the whole insurance thing sorted out before I got the car, I'm still only 19 now and paying $927 p/a for fully comprehensive insurance.

NismoR34 Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 I would recommend Shannons if you can, having gone through a rigorous process late last year with my r34GTT [also black ] they were the best by far ~ they beat all the other inc. just car. FTR: I am rating 1, 28 y.o. and am paying $1,200 [full comp ins.] for a turbo/2door/import hopefully it wont be too long til you can get down to a similar figure. 5 years ago i got a quote for a nissan pintara trx for approx. $4,300 - a locally built 4 cylinder non-turbo, insurance companies suck - especially when you are young & havent got a rating...
