INSANITI Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Hi, Got 2005 coupe auto and my insurance is with NRMA for $1750 a year. Who's your insurance? Mines due for another year of commitment and hoping to find someone lower. Theres no finance on the car but im a bit hesitant doing 3rd Party. What are your thoughts and who do you use? Thanks Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/434435-comprehensive-car-insurance-nsw/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicii Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 It might be different depending on you circumstances and location. NRMA was the cheapest for me at $750 the first year and then $850 for my last renewal. 2005 manual sedan.

GTR-N1 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 For grey imports there are also... Just Car, Shannon's, Lumleys SV or (through a broker) Dawes. Best quote will depend on car, postcode and your record/age Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/434435-comprehensive-car-insurance-nsw/#findComment-7091827 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTR-N1 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Great! Congratulations! Remember too that when it comes time to renew, still ring around, since insurance companies will sometimes bump up the premium assuming that you'll stay loyal to that company. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/434435-comprehensive-car-insurance-nsw/#findComment-7094362 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTR-N1 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 You're welcome! And another thing... PDS of Just Car will reveal that if your car needs to be repaired, Just Car will choose the cheapest of their own preferred repairer (unless the one you choose is cheaper still). If you download the PDS of Shannon's, you'll notice that you yourself get to choose your own repairer subject to the assessor's approval.

The Max Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 If you download the PDS of Shannon's, you'll notice that you yourself get to choose your own repairer subject to the assessor's approval. Additionally, should the car ever be written off, you're given first opportunity to buy the wreck back from them.

the toecutter Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I rang around and found Shannons the cheapest too, and having first right over a write off is very important. My V36 is only $1100 a year for $40k cover but it is bundled with other vehicles. The more the merrier....

GTR-N1 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Nah, insurance companies are businesses with little conscience and even less compassion. There are even unwritten interpretations that you won't even see in a PDS. They operate under law. Do you see the 'ivory towers' they build in the cities? When paperwork was installed into computers, one would expect that computers save space - even require less staff; but no, the buildings just went higher! jk Stay with Just Car for a year and then shop around once more. My GTRs have been with Just Car, Lumley SV, Dawes, Shannon's and Pharmacy Guild (who've now opted out of grey imports since 2011). Your good record (or bad) follows you around wherever you go!!!

junkie Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 (edited) Shannons wanted $2700 for my taxi spec 35, which must also be garaged at night. No thanks... They also bumped my s14 premium from around $1500 to almost $2000 when I moved out to Bankstown, thats for a car thats always garaged and under limited use policy. Yes I know the area plays a big role but thats just way too much of a price jump Made the move to LSV, half the Shannons quote and pretty much the same benefits. Dont have any issues chaning companies now, loyalty counts for squat these days Edited November 10, 2013 by junkie 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/434435-comprehensive-car-insurance-nsw/#findComment-7101596 Share on other sites More sharing options...
