Insuring Lamborghini Gallardo For Under 21


Recommended Posts

Ok I'm in a little bit of a predicament my uncle up in Brisbane has recently purchased a 2006 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder and says his son (my awesome cousin) and I can drive it as long as we can find an insurance company that would cover us (without a ridiculous price tag) I was almost certain JustCar would insure us but I had little luck there I was hoping you guys would now any insurance companies that would even consider our application?

Little info

We havent had any claims, were both under 21, I'm on my Full's my cousin is on his P's and we both REALLY want to drive this car

Oh and Shannon's just rejected me as well....this is not looking good

Yeah good luck with that made. I think probably due to the price tag and your age you will have little to no luck finding someone.

Maybe if you try one of the smaller insurance companies like young and cool or people like that? or maybe that new one..pay as you drive or something?

Just start calling everyone. I doubt you would get anyone to cover your cousin as on his P's im pretty sure this would be classified as a high powered vechile and therefor illegal. I would probably focus on just your application.

GIO has a performance section for a while. Worth trying for. Also try an online quote, may slip through.

An Insurance Broker, maybe..?

I had to go through one with my Mitsubishi Lancer GLi cuz I was 19 at the time and just because the paper work said Lancer SV = Special Vehical just because of a bodykit, wheels and nothing else...

BTW show us some pics.

You want insurance for a 21 year old driving a 2006 Lambo, and you don't want a ridiculous price tag?

:D

I'd expect that IF you do find someone willing to insure you, you could well be looking at close to a 5 figure premium :yes:

PICS ARE UP DAMMIT HAHAH...isn't she just gorgeous?

LOL!

Yeah now I see. Man it looks awesome.

Is that, what looks to be a Porsche behind it in the 1st pic?

Also when you find insurance for it, drive it down to Melbourne and we have a SAU meet up.

You cant insure a vehicle that isnt yours. Your best bet is getting your uncle to list you as a driver.

And with your age, there wouldnt be a premium big enough that would accept you two as a risk.

Good luck!

Have to agree with you.

Think about it from their perspective. A couple "kids" under 21 want to pay you money to cover all the possible costs of repairs for a car worth $200k? Due to their age, they likely dont have a lot of driving experience, more along the lines of you CAN'T have a lot of experience due to your limited time at being able to have a license. Plus young drivers are more prone to speeding, etc even if you personally don't fit that category.

How much money would charge a couple of people that came to you, asking you to take on that risk? I wouldn't be surprised if they asked for $20k just to insure you if anyone actually agrees.

On the other note. Best of luck mate. Would be awesome if you actually got it covered.

i'm 29 rating 1 and drive a 33gtst that shannons class as "highly modified" and it's insured for 22.5k i pay $1600 per year

you are under 21 and want to drive a lambo gallardo that redbook value @ 265k so going on percentages here...

you should be paying $18,930 per year (plus 500 underage excess) :D

ouch...I'm 23 and pay less than you for the same thing with the same company

1. Your uncle's car is a sexy, SEXY car.

2. His garden looks really nice too - and I don't normally care about gardens lol.

3. I'm over 25. How about you get your uncle to insure me and I'll take you and I'll drive you and your cousin around for an entire day.

    • Hi, We've all posted some thread, or know of some other person's thread, that contains information that we want to send people who are asking question to. But if we don't have a link readily available, have to go do a search for the thread before being able to do so. So, it occurred to me that we could possibly utilise the auto-text-replace function that fixes some of my swear words to perhaps auto replace some special keywords with text that also has a link to the thread. A specific example. The thread that I did with the improved R32 GTR wiring diagram scans. If the phrase "R32 GTR wiring diagram" could be auto replaced with "R32 GTR wiring diagram" then all I (or @Duncan, or any of the others that refer to the thread) need to do is remember that that's the keyword (or phrase in this case). OK, it would be better if this keyphrase wasn't that long, but it does need to be specific enough that it doesn't get triggered automatically. And obviously there are threads on turbo topics, or suspension topics that we could treat similarly. Alternatively (and/or additionally), I've been thinking about trying to build a library of the real expert content that is trapped in the bowels of the 25odd years of this site. Things like some of SydneyKid's content. There are threads that he started that should be more easily found, and he has individual posts, or series of posts, in other people's threads, containing very good information. Some of us know that it is there, but....just have no memory of exactly where/when/how we saw it. If we had some sort of library thread, we could put posts in there containing links to things we've found, suggestions for how to categorise it, then a mod or other appointed thread maintainer can copy the link and any key text up into the first post in the library thread. There are probably many other ways to get it done. Some sort of wiki is probably the best way.   Thoughts?
    • But, probably that happened to the last person too, which is why the RTV was there.....if you aren't putting a new gasket in you will need to seal the old gasket back to the metal surface with something, the gaskets will generally only work properly for a single use as they set/harden in that shape
    • What is with the horrible blue and white bit in the centre of the wheels, didn't that come off with some scrubbing?
    • Not sure how broadly you define Northside  but Castle Hill Exhaust are still around and could sort it.
    • I haven't done this as I still use the factory cluster, but I do know the circuits for the flash vs on for hi beam are separate which is likely the issue. The ON runs full power through the switch and the flash uses the relay in the engine bay. I'd hit the wiring diagram per GTSBoy's suggestion
