Gio Custom Car Insurance

[groonsnout]

So I had quotes of Shannons and Just cars for my S1 RS4..

The Shanonns quote was the cheapest, but had all the usual crap shannons conditions like the car can't be visible from the street etc.. Just cars was through the roof ($1500 yr + stupidly high excess). So I talked to GIO about their new custom car insurance. They gave me a quote of $1400 with no restrictions, a decent excess, windscreen protection, 65% no claim with lifetime protection etc..

So I told them it was a fair bit higher than the shannons quote and they told me to fax a copy of it through as company policy is to beat any quote by $50! So I got the car fully insured, with all the bells and whistles, for $14,000, for $980 per year!

Give them a try! Or just get quotes through someone else and get them to beat it,

choice of repairer, lifetime warranty on repairs etc.. as well.

Cheers,

Michael

i gave them a ring, gave me the best quote i had recieved.

then they told me it was a wrong quote and it ended up being 2400...for a stock S1.

wasnt even paying that much for my old modified r32...

and they werent nice to me as well.

but hope all ends up being good for you, i have been dicked around by insurance companies so many times...

and the quote u got, was pretty much exactly the same as what i got. how old are you?

[Tangles]

shannons, all the bells n whistles, $940pa, $22000 agreed value

[JVP]

rub it in brendo, rub it in....

i WAS paying 980 with vigil, until they decided that they didnt want to insure under 23 yr olds.

dont let me go into that again

[Tangles]

lol yeah, ive done my 'time' with insurance companies

2900 for my zx7r Kawasaki when 18

2500 for same when I was 19

2000 for a zx9r when I was 21

grrrr

[evil_weevil]

I called GIO c.c.i.and the guy didnt even know half the "usual mods" and was asking about them

no idea...

[JVP]

yeh the guy a spoke to sounded younger than me

and was a smartass. ill give u f**king volvo

and he made me a rating 1 for some reason...

grrr i hate insurance companies.

[R324DR]

Just called GIO and they wont insure a s2 2000 Stagea.

[JVP]

thats odd, coz i also got a quote for an S2, as well as an S1.

needless to say, it was over 2k....

[shamus]

yeah, I work for Custom Car Insurance and we only insure up to 1999 stageas. JVP: Did they say what the problem with the first quote was?

[R324DR]

they said that they will insure a s2 99 but not a 2000. I expaned to them that they are the same car, but that didnt seem to matter as apparently there are not enough s2 2000 models in Australia for there requirements. Just cars quoted me $1158 so i guess i will be going with them.

[JVP]

well, when i first rang, i got a quote for a 1997 S1 stagea. told him my age and all that crap.

the dude gave me a rating one for some reason. now i didnt take the quote out straight away as i had not decided what stagea to purchase first.

rang back about 1 1/2 weeks later and spoke to a lady, and she said that the quote was totally wrong, and that i shouldnt have been a rating one. even tho i had the quote numbers and all, she said nah we cant do it, the first guy had stuffed up, the new quote is $2,200....

and i was not going to pay that much.

this was a couple of months ago, but thats the jist of what happened.

[JVP]

i am currently with young and cool, paying 1500 a year. almost 600 dollars more than what i was paying with vigil.

im still pissed at that too. f**king assholes.

if you got your license when you were 18 then we'll give you a Rating 2. If you still have the original quote number sitting around somewhere can you PM it to me? I'll have a look at it....
