Just car

Rating 1, 16K "agreed" value, 1200 excess, 1000

Do not compair Shannons to Justcars, they are leagues appart.

There is a WA guy on the forums that works for Shannons, does awesome deals, give him a PM:

_8OO5TED_ (real name: Matt)

He will call you from work and sort out your insurance :wave:

Whats the car and details?

I cannot recommend Shannons highly enough. Matt from here has been superb so seeing as you are with them, I would stay. Actually upon re-reading, it is the guy Al is recommending above.

My Evo is $1300 fully comp with 3 other named drivers and agreed value. Very happy indeed and no extra to pay by the month. I am Rating 1 protected.

Yeah shannons in WA is the way to go. Chris (GTRSOUL) organised everything for me.

They even insured me with my driving history! (2 court cases and a few fines here and there)

I previously insured my r32 GTR with Just Cars: Rating 1 - Full Comp - $21800 agreed value = $1300. Excess was around $900

Now with Shannons its agreed value of $25000 with premium of $1500. Excess (from memory) was about $800.

To me it made sense to spend $200 more and get an extra $3000 cover.

By memory i think Just Cars (a part of AAMI) and Shannons could only insure me(GTR)

Shannons has excess lower than that ,I nominated only myself and have only a $500 excess and they give one free windscreen replacement every year.But then again I am 39 with no claims or traffic infringements(Knock on wood)

Yes an agreed value is the way to go .I have $35000 on mine(Its hard to find a good GTR33 at that price though)

not sure why some of you are having a cry :thumbsup:

i was 21 rating 6/just cars (my previous insurance on my P's was under my moms insurance so i never got any rating points for those 3 years)

and i was paying $3200 to just cars :)

now 2 years on.. im paying like $1900 to shannons :yes:

Wow! I wonder if anyone can beat that $3200!

Is that $1900 with a rating 4 now?

How much would be expected to drop from my ~$2400 when i go to rating 4 (knock on wood making no claim)?

after a yr with just cars when i changed from rating 6 - 5 i was paying $2200.. i doubt yours is gonna drop $1k though :thumbsup:

you should speak to shannons though, there excess is about $1000 cheaper than just cars, and they let you pay monthly :)

Like Al said, speak to _8OO5TED_ on SAU and he'll fix you up :yes:

Thanks for the heads up! But i've already PM'd _8OO5TED_ and got referred on to another user of the forums to help me out - but it was too late unfortunately for that time being. I'm not so fussed with Just Car ATM, i might consider changing companies down the track though.

Cheers for your reply!

    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.  
    • Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?
