that is wierd. I'm under 30 and rating 3, just car insured my "modified" gtr 33 vspec for around the same price....

hi..i was jus wonderin for famous insurance....rite...

umm can i put a R33 GTS-T 96?97? under my dad's name whose 49 wit a 60%NCB...........

like do they allow u to put it under ur dad's name or do u have to specify the youngest driver like Just caRS?

[JimX]

You have to tell them everyone who will be driving the car. I'm not sure if you can put it in your parent's name, ring and ask.

I just called. I'm a Rating 1 - 25 years old. 93 GTS-t no mods $2000 flat and they asked if had experience with a turbo car.

What are other 25 year olds getting with with rating 1 and the same car?

Im 21 rating 3 no fines or anything was quoted $2900 for R32 Gtst worth $15k with exhaust, in Outer SE Melbourne (Mornington). They lowered it to $2600 but wouldnt go any lower. Couldnt match just cars $2100. When i asked if she used r32 or r33 Robin said that for turbo cars it doesnt matter which model, they use the same base rate.

Weird I got quoted about $3000 for a 94 R32 GTR ensured for $30k. I have lost my lisence last Dec and i have 30% no claim (2 years). Im in Perth...must be a suburb/state thing

Hey guys, I just called Robin and finally found an insurance company that'd insure me. Reason why others haven't is because I'm too young (U/25) and been done DUI .013 on p-plates (the day after - how lucky!!!). Been quoted for under $2800 with 20% NCB. Note that we aren't getting a 10% discount, they charge 10% extra for if you take out pay-by-the-month, they're just knocking it off for us Skyline freaks:) It all sounds good, but I need insurance 24x7, as I drive in the country a fair bit. Good for people who don't leave home though:)

Cheers.

hey guys i am with Famous and for my R33 4 door not modified and a rating one with no at fault accidents and i am 50 this year my premium is $1090 per year and excess is $1000 if at fault accident and $2000 if it is nicked . Not sure if they saw me coming but will check out . Can you please give me the contact that you said was in charge of the inport vehicles.

fernbrae...... I am the big 50 as well and have just picked up an R34 and the best insurance I have got thus far is thru Shannons and is $803 excess 750. Give them a try.

hi ppls, im 21, dont have any no claim, sydney and want to insure an r33 gts-t (not yet purchased).

i just rang them up and got a quote for 3300.

they seem to be giving everyone discounts or cheaper prices.

i asked the lady and she said that they couldnt lower the price any more. i mentioned that my mate is younger than me(20) and has pretty much the same details and his premium is only 2900. she said that they do it on a case by case basis, but how does that work if ive been driving for longer than he has and older than him? it doesnt make any sense.

[JimX]

When did he get quoted $2900? On the same day? Does he live in the same suburb?

$3300 for your age and without any NCB is an absolute ****ing bargain. I would take that immediately. My premium is $1700 and that's with 60% and aged over 30. If I had your quote at full price then I would be paying $1320.

[ac1d3o3]

They said that the area u live in doesnt matter, only the state.

He got his insurance like a month ago.

but i dont think that much changes in a month does it?

He was also able to bargain the price down to 2900, but the lady i talked to wouldnt budge. Maybe its the sales rep that i talked to?

i dont know if i can afford 3300 for insurance. if theyd lower it just a tad to like 3000 then id jump at the opportunity. Otherwise i may have to get a 200sx and pay $2700 for insurance.

i love the skylines tho

[2rismo]

Just re-insured my 33 and changed to Famous. Big difference... Huge.... Saved me 800 bux.

Very happy,

Thankyou Robin and co...

[fernbrae]

hey Muz

I tried Shannons and was told that they only insured classic cars

eg. cobras or the like . was told that the skyline did not fit the bill.

I would be really interested in a contact that will be forthwith and realley give me the mail.

ps.

thanks for the reply .were are you based as we old farts have to stick together . not always is speed the main objective.

[Wogboy]

That's strange, I'm also with Shannons, had no problems with my R33 the guy told me it didn't matter how modified the car was either, I'm 40 & pay $600.

[taylor]

also...Suncorp Metway seem to have a reasonable price on third party. my gtst r33 for 510$

[Guilty]

i jus got quoted for an R33 GTS-T 94...for an 18year old wit no past convictions.........by just cars..for $5300 -_-;;

have to give famous a call

[JimX]

I don't think Famous insures anyone under 21 anymore.

[Cyric]

22 Rating 1: GTS25T R33 $1800..... with JustCars...

so i just rang Famous as every1 was talking bout em to see if they could get me some spare $... 60% ncb was $2400 pfft....
