hey i read through a few pages here, im on dialup so cant go through 30 pages,

i just got a 1994 toyata soarer with lexus badges on it, its a V6 non turbo auto.

Ive called racq, nrma, budget, and suncorp, all of them either wont ensure me cause im under 25 (23) or cause its an import.

I will call some of the companies mentioned in this thread on Monday, but anything over $1000 and i dont think i will be able to afford it??!?!? :P

For someone with experience how much should i expect to pay?

Give Just Cars a call mate, they will be able to help out, no worries.

P.S, are u sure its a V6? I thought the non-turbo Soarers were inline 6cyl 2JZGE engines....

i am having a hard time finding insurance for my car. 29yo rating 1 with Famous r33gtst but now on-street parking and Famous+Shanno refused. Only Suncorp and Just Car so far. Any suggestion ?

get a garage :mad:

nah, just joking mate, there isnt really much you can do in that case, tough situation :S

29yo with a gtst shouldnt be too much though ? $1500 max ?

On a lighter note, I rang Custom Car Insurance (GIO offshoot?) for a quote on my lightly modded S2 R33 GTS-t Sedan, they quoted me about $3550, which made me laugh as I told them that I currently paid $1,200 with Just Cars, with all my mods listed, me being a 24yr old rating one male.

i found that with famous if you give them a quote to your liking they will try to beat it. i told them just car quoted me 1900 so they did 1600. just car actually quoted me 2500. works well actually. but we'll see

Yeah famous give good prices but you just need to be aware that they are an off shore backed company and as a result are not bound by Aus Legislation so if you have any issues with them you really dont have anywhere to go in regards to the Aus authorities to try and resolve your issue :D

EG: consumer affairs, etc....

Just some info that i think you should know before signing :)

Has anyone seen RYNO's Club Racing insurance extra?

For an extra $500 on top of your normal excesses, you can claim a motorsport accident if the event that you crashed in was a CAMS approved event (which I think most SAU/WRX events are)

They will pay out up to $20,000 to repair your car - or the value of your car if it is less than $20,000.

I think thats a pretty good deal seeing as I do all kinds of club events! Does anyone else concur?

Just called Just cars insurance for a comparison from Shannon’s insurance on my GTR. What a comparison.

Just cars

Script kiddy, couldn't handle talking

Is the GTR manual or Auto?

Insured for what I paid for it (bargain that it was)

$1600 excess

$2260 premium

Shannon’s

Someone who could talk to me

Knew the car from the start

Insured for more than I paid for it (agreed value but at higher market value)

$500 excess

$14?? premium

From the conversation or little of it I had with Just cars I wouldn't trust them to pay out. It was like speaking to a recording, it was worse than the Indian call centers.

You guys that like Just cars must have terrible records. I wouldn't go near them. Even NRMA was cheaper!

I have never even been pulled over in 3 years let alone got a speeding fine,Just cars are the only company that will insure me that have a premium + excess isn't more then the car is worth.

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works!
