welcome to the world of car ownership where values drop everyday.

to be honest, the value of $20,050 was pretty high to start with. $14,950 is much more accurate.

Unfortunate side effect of performance vehicles is an empty wallet/bank account. i can tell you that the insurance was higher for me in my '98 non-turbo R34 2-door... and don't even start on the GTR.

The way i justify it to myself is that if it is expensive, it means that the people who are driving are actually committed to their cars and hopefully the high costs will keep the idiots away. After all, driving a nice car is a privilege not a right.

No quibbling with Marc.

On occasions though, you can get a quote from a competitive company (eg with Lumleys SV if you're with Just Car) and ask if you can maintain a Sum Insured that's similar to your current $20K.

It may be of benefit to get a quote one year with B if you're with A. Then if you insure with B, the following year get a quote from A again. Sometimes there can be a pleasant surprise (as if that's possible from an insurance co)
