Stolen/recovered: R33 Nissan Skyline R33 Gtr

[saff_cossie]

Car thefts are appaling especially when they happen to someone you know. Hopefully your mate has some luck locating the culprits or the car.

All the guys who have posted about him having a GTR and not affording insurance, re-read the original post. He didnt have it because of his age. This to me would say he is on his P's and no one would legally insure him. Insurance or not though, this sucks big time.

You reckon the plates "RIDE IT" had something to do with it.

sorry to hear that the GTR was stolen .. unfortunately, they're desirable cars and worth a bit of coin, so people are always going to try and take them.

In my mind, if you cannot afford the insurance, you can't afford the car. If nobody will insure you, then wait till someone will.

This guy obviously didn't want to wait, and paid the ultimate price. He's probably sort of well off anyway, if the car was under any sort of finance, it would of needed to be fully insured.

how much is insurance on say an R32 GTR for a P plater, 3rd party to cover stolen?

it coucldnt be any more then $1000 per year, if it is around that then WTF are people doing with these cars? no doubt they play to spend that much on mods?

well as was mentioned above 3rd party fire and theft will only pay out $5K minus excess. comprehensive insurance for a p plater with a 32 GTR in a nice area in sydney will be around the $5K per year mark.

Yeah but he might've taken out a personal loan to buy the car. That doesn't require insurance.

I agree, I wouldnt own a GTR without insurance but didnt want this turning into a thread about people not affording insurance on a GTR.

OUCH

Stolen Car + No Insurance = Thats gotta hurt.

Hope it turns up and is undamaged.

[LANFOH]

Sorry to hear mate but its just stupid getting a car like that with no insurance anyone could have told him that, I guess he learnt the hard way.

[ctjet]

sorry to hear about that mate

my services are welcome if you find the c**ts

This is the third time in recent months that I've read such a tragic story.

While I really feel for anyone who loses their loved car I cannot but reemphasise:

GET F#$#%^G INSURANCE !!!!

If you can't afford the insurance - you shouldn't have the car !!!!

Sorry to be blunt - but really..... how many more times will we hear this story.

Anyhow - Good luck with the recovery (I really mean that)

idealy you should not need insurance.

but it seems there are too many c**ts here who like to steal these cars.

insurance for my age, 22 on a gtr is up around the 6000-7000 mark for a year..

its crazy i know i'd sure love to spent that 7000 on many other things

anyway best of luck finding the car..

p.s. where is griffith??

[Guest Mashrock]

and to add to that, the ammount of time my car is off the road and in someones workshop its hardly worth it.

[lordsnipe]

then it's a risk you take with your car.

[Primordial]

Damn.. that sucks big-time

I've noticed that all of the ones stolen recently have been un-insured. Is that just bad luck, or are there really that many people out there without full comp insurance??

I sure as hell wouldnt drive a car without insurance that is as powerful as skylines are for one, but are also as attractive to theives as a bleeding bull is to piranhas!! :

Anyway, thats hardly the point. Good luck to your mate, I hope he finds the guy(s) and rips their bloody arms off!!!

Car theft is a part of life and it aint going to change. Im sick of reading all the sob stories on here about people with GTR's especially getting stolen and hardly anyone having any insurance.

NO INSURANCE = NO SYMPATHY

Man that is cold Bleach1.

I didnt even have time after the car getting into the country to get

my GTR insured before it was broken into twice and stolen on the second

time, although recovered plus one blown engine.

[Konrad]

Dude how could u not have time?? you'd have the engine, vin no surely and have it registered before driving it anywhere, u do know all it takes is a phonecall and you're covered from the second you set the policy up??

meh couldn't be bothered

[Crimpage]

$1000 alarm, $800 carminder.

I wouldnt pay $5000 a year in insurance. I shouldnt have to. It's legal theft.
