Need Insurance? Want Cheaper Insurance?

[SiX]

Justcars don't let you choose your repairer do they?

You need to get two quotes from their prefered repair shops. Just Car will pick the beter of the two

[JimX]

Meh. I'll stick to insurers that let me choose my own repairer.

[SiX]

Actually AAMI lets you get a quote from a repairer of your choice, they will compair the costs of other repair shops and pick the best deal.

And there is a 3 year warrenty on all repairs

[two40]

and ones that give you salvage rights. don't know if just cars do or do not but famous does.

I thought AAMI in particular forced you to got only to their crash repair centres, they have a few stuck around town like Haberfield

The reason that they have their own list of repairers is because they have already found the cheapest. Any shops that you find are unlikely to beat them, so they can easily make that offer.

This is a legitimate question - Say you get rear-ended, and go to the cheapest repairer you can find. How much extra would they charge you to respray the whole car after the repair, rather than just the rear quarter, which would look absolutely retarded when the front half is 5-10 years old?

Just called Famous for a quote on 3rd party fire + thieft and apparently they don't do it!

Full comp only, i thought that was a bit odd?!?!

Does anyone have any suggestions for thrid party insurance?

[Blitz]

As I understand it there arent many insurers that offering 3rd party fire in theft in NSW.

Someone else may be able to further clarify this one

[PHaT MR30]

hmm thats odd, i called famous for a quote on 3rd party F&T and they gave it too me

[Blitz]

OK - Your info says Launceston, If you re-read my post you will in fact see that i was referring to NSW

[PHaT MR30]

sorry didn't notice that, oh and i was replying to the msg above yours

does anywhere do it in NSW?

[tridentt150v]

Just Cars $504, I just did it

[Method]

Without asking for car mods, model etc ...Famous quoted me $1900 on a Nissan Skyline GTS-T (Im 25, rating 1), thats $900 more than Just Car Insurance.

[Nizmo]

yeah im currently shopping around for insurance .... given both Famous n Just Cars a call ..... i'll be going with Just Cars. Famous is way outta the water with prices.

[Bobjones]

Open up your HPI mag and look at Insurance Advisernet, they are a client of mine and are very good brokers...they actually found insurance that I could include my girlfriend on.

Give Adam Lewis a call and tell him Neill sent you.

Cheers

I just joined SunCorp Metway, Rating 1, 26 yrs old, modified r33 gts-25t as per below's signature. The premium was roughly under $1200, $1650 excess, no under 25 drivers.

A rating 2 with all the above was roughly $1450/year.

3rd party was $170/year, $1000 excess....

Pay by the month available at 15% more....

I have tried RACQ, they dun insure skyline r33's.

Give Suncorp a try everyone!
