Insurance

[Bucks]

Im very close to getting a S2 33 and was just wondering what sorta prices people are paying for their yearly insurance and whether mods make a difference etc.

cheers

[Bl4cK32]

mods have to be legal, and i know with shannons u can list a few mods.

All depends on yer age, and history unfortunately.

[axe s]

Just ring around and get a few quotes, it depends on a lot of things... like location, years u'v had ur licence etc...

just cars you can have unlimited mods, but premium will go up depending on mods...

[savage GTR]

Try H2P insurance, underwritten by RAA .

$890 fullcomp with mods. Im 35 but not sure what my rating is .

It will depend on the suburb that you live , your age , speeding fines, where it is parked, amout of K's that you do and

if it is alarmed (which it will).

good luck

Just Cars have done well by me

[SLED]

Shannons $1150 for R34 GTR V-Spec with mild mods but restricted to 1 or 2 drivers over 25yrs old.

I have to say the same.

My insurance with Just Cars was going to be 1300+, but they rang me back to say I can be classed as a rating one, because I had allready insured another car before. It got dropped to 950. so it was quite nice of them

[R33 S2]

my first year with just cars was 2300. and just payed my renewal and it was 1400. im now at a rating 2.

my first year with just cars was 2300. and just payed my renewal and it was 1400. im now at a rating 2.

just curious, how old where you in your first year when you paid 2300?

[KISIN]

all depends on your :

age

area u live in

garaged/locked up at day/night

driving record

mods

can also depend how often u use the car

thats all i can think of atm...

+1 for Just Cars - they're even cheaper now with their 'AD-just' scheme thing... if you dont plan to crash!

LOL, I dont think anyone ever plans to crash. If we didnt plan to crash, we wouldnt need insurance, right? Sometimes accidents happen, and the last thing you want is some $1-2k excess which just makes you feel worse.

Anyway, Im with Shannons:

27yo, rating one for life, no speeding fines in the last 5 years and my premium is ~1000 a year from memory for R33 GTS-t with mods. Excess is only $400 and have choice of repairer and first right to wreck in worst case scenario.

Just Car $1150 rating 1 - I'm 26, and my wife is 23 (JCI put the youngest driver as the policy holder).

Just Car do have higher excesses but usually lower premiums and lower requirements than all other insurers I know.

I've tried calling shannons 3 times and each time they've told me where to go (not an "enthusiast" or some crap) so I just returned the compliment. Not going to waste my time with them again. What happens to all you guys insured with Shannons when it comes to make a claim and they turn around and give you the "you're not an enthusiast" dribble.

I dont know too many people who own a modified Nissan Stagea who aren't an enthusiast about their car. I've been to cruises, an sau photoshoot, and have spent way too much money modifying the car but apparently its just not enough to rank in the shannons elite. Yet my brother who used to own a ford xr wagon with exhaust was able to insure that car with them no worries...go figure.

Any company that wants to turn away good customers is not one that I want to deal with...

I've had no claims or fines either btw...very clean record (touch wood)

Anyways, +1 for JustCar. Never made a claim so unfortunately I cant comment on that...but I'm with them becuase of how easy they are to deal with. They dont need to know where the car is parked during the day, just the basic details and thats all. Other insurers ask way too many questions IMO, makes me nervous about what they will ask in a claim....say the car was broken into and I happened to be parked in a bad spot during the day that I hadn't told them about when I signed up?

Comes down to who you can trust I guess. fingers crossed.

Not true.

also not true.

[mid life crisis]

im with shannons r33 agreed value to 18 grand . around 900 a yr 500 buck if i make a claim one free windscreen choice of repairer. and pay by the month for no extra . they will do me

i used to be with just cars they wanted 1100 bucks a yr 1000 bucks if i made a claim and could not pay by the month at the time this may have changed now. shop around not all insurence companys suit all people

[Sinful]

Shannons are really good..

Price also comes down if you have your race licence ie. Cams L2S

[R33 S2]

just curious, how old where you in your first year when you paid 2300?

i was 20 the first year of insurance.

[Pauly33GTS-t]

i paid 1630 as a rating 2 on my first year of insurance at age 20 with just car.

im probably gonna be paying 1700 this year in about 10 days from 1300 from the fact of losing my licence.

[AFTDRK]

21 y.o, R33 S2, $1090 p/year full comp with Just Car.

[SAGTS-4]

hey i got a series 2 R33 but non turbo and now saving for a turbo i need a few grand and i will prob get it about a month before im 18... Should i wait until im 18 to buy my turbo 33 or just go with 17 because if its alot of difference in price im not going to pay that bit extra cause i rang up 30 days to early

thanks
