I just got a significantly better insurance quote from Ryno aswell. Problem is it says car must be regularly garaged at night... my car doesnt go in the garage, it goes behind the house (and on an acreage at that so pretty damn safe). Is it safe to just say its garaged??

Whilst your car is most probably safe in its situation- I wouldn't risk it as you may be in breach of your duty of disclosure if it comes to claim time.

no. they'll avoid paying a claim if they knew that. A garrage is not just for security either, it's for hail damage protection also.

How?

Investigators dude....

seriously - whats the point in lying?

ok, you pay for insurance saying its "garaged" but whats the point, claim time, you lied, fatone, claim declined.

so you have paid for nothing.

simple - dont lie.

I wasn't saying lie I'm genuinely curious, has anyone actually ever heard of them doing periodic checks to see if the car in question is parked on the street. If it was stolen how would they know if it was on the street or not, its now gone so its your word against their word, come pay out time unless they had proof it wouldn't stand up in court and they would have to pay out. Does that mean if its parked out on the street while you are cleaning out your garage its not covered? Its just a general thing to gauge how likely it is to get pinched, I doubt its written in the contract that it must under all circumstances be stored in the garage every single night or your insurance is void.

One contract i read, but didnt end up agreeing to said the car must be parked in the garage EVERY night unless it was more than 200m from the registered address i.e. you could go out or to a mates place all night, just not leave it behind your own house.

Guys anyone know who i can go with when i semi regularly park my line at train stations and friends houses when i go to work? Only insurance companies that seem to be willing to insure me are Just Cars and Young and Cool. $1800 just cars but $2.8k excesses.... young and cool 2.2k premium and 500-1k excess...

Ryno and Vigil would insure me for around $1400 premium and $500 excess if i didnt park it in public during the day. :bunny: I mean im damn carefull about where i do park it so it has maximum safety and doesnt draw attention. dammit. Anyone??

Mate you are always gunna struggle with insurance especially if you park your line in a public carpark or on the street. These cars are considered a high risk car for both theft and accidents; therefore this is reflected in both the premiums and excesses. I doubt anyone else will touch you to be honest :)

Looks like i will have to go with Young and Cool, 2.2k premium, about $400 more than justcars are quoting me to renew my policy, but much lower excess should something bad happen. Bugger.

Does anyone know much about young and cool? They have a good rep?

Woohoo!.. Just did some shopping around for my CTP Greenslip previously was $550-$600 for the renewal with NRMA.

This year at the age of 25 :)

Just got it in the mail after getting a quote over the phone on the weekend

AAMI Premium $251.23

GST: $25.12

MCIS Levies $82.65

TOTAL: $359

ah sweet,

Im 25 now, so thats a great thing to look forward - a cheap greenslip!!!

Xizor - unfort if thats the main use forthe car - justcars or young and cool will be the only two options.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
