What do you pay for your insurance and where?

Really looking for some under 20's here.

Looking for a first car, i would put it in my dads name, 59yrs old gold license 60% no claim bonus but im finding it extremely difficult to get a quote for most of the cars im looking at. ($10k)

R32 gtst

S13 ca18det/sr20det

laser tx3 4wd turbo

(+ more placid cars i can get insurance for)

So what do/did you pay?

;)

If his post is rubbish why bother answering it. He asked a simple f***ing question. No need to be a smart arse

:confused: i answered his post because someone else would have said exactly the same thing i did.

see the next post below mine!

Ignore them.

Im 22 f in melb and have a 33 gtst (I know I know completely dif to you) but I pay about $2200 a year full comp.

My cousin is 20 with a 32 gts (note GTS - no turbo) and pays approx $3300 full comp in his own name.

Its not cheap. Good luck.

well, this q does come up all the time, which is why we tried to do an FAQ for it. I'd be happy to add any additions to it.

I just did a search for insurance in just the automotive section, returned 350 threads.http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/se...rder=descending

duncan is right .. insurance comes up so much it gets old .. and people just don't do a simple search ... in fact i'm sure insurance ... and the "how much are u payin for insurance and who from" is the most common thread newbies write ... besides the "welcome to yesterday" topic type thread :D

Sorry dudes, i didnt search but i looked through a couple of pages of posts and didnt see anything where people were listing their insurance so i thought i was safe.. guess not :D

Admins feel free to close/delete this thread :D

ps. Decided insurance would be too much (and most places wont insure me even only listed as a nominated driver) so im just going to let me dad 'purchase' the car and 'borrow' it 'every now and then' ;)

Don't mean to be rude......sorry this, sorry that. Guys you are being rude.....things change all the time....I don't see any prob in updating a topic. Give the guy a break!

Sovereign....My advice is to....

a. get a car you can afford to insure, and thus build up your own no claim bonus. or

b. get an import, bite the bullet and fork out for the inurance, and again build that no claim bonus.

There are no shortcuts in life, and nothing is free and easy. You will get no where real fast having the car insured/owned by your father. This is exactly what I would advise my kids to do.

Best of luck whichever way you go.

    • Hey guys I’m chasing a Rb20det complete or bare block need a good running engine as mine has low comp 
    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
    • Anyone know alternatives to powerplus tungsten? Can't find an alternative online. 
    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
