White R33 Stolen From Altona

it is good enough mate. its a legally binding document.

^ A stat dec is a doc that is bound by law to say that what you are claiming is not full of shit. Whatever you write on it is punishable by law if you are found to be making a false statement, so an insurance company has to take it as truth.

• to verify insurance claims"

Thanks. Still waiting to hear from assessor.

Ok it's been 2 weeks and rang up insurance to get the ball rolling. They asked all the same questions again, asked for the police file number, pictures and how many km it had. This is going to hurt me big time! I have owned the car for 7 years and bought it with 114,000km, last time i looked it had either 124k, 126k or 128k. It has never been serviced by anyone besides myself. In 7 years it hasn't needed any mechanical work so never seen a shop. How do i prove the low km?? I have no pictures of the dash.

The cars was only swapped to RACV in 2012 (along with everything else) and I asked if they had the details from then. Apparently they don't care how many km are on a car when it gets insured.

An ideas? Willing to do a stat dec (the copper in charge said to do this) but RACV say that isn't good enough.

Sounds like a pain

Mine was a 5 mins phone call with just cars and got paid out asap no questions

Well i don't mind it taking a while because if they base the payout on a standard km and condition skyline of that year then it will be crap!

Just as a side note here.... What is Altona like in general for car theft etc??

I'm asking because I am thinking of moving out that way from Elwood. Compared the cost on an online insurance quote and for my cheap fire and theft insurance was only like $50 per year more.....

[Bond]

From what i hear it's not bad but someone obviously wanted mine Also Altona is a big place and i consider Altona Meadows and Altona North to be a lot more dodgy to where i am.

[Odium]

I would be keeping any nice car in a lockup garage and out of sight of people driving past though...

[Bond]

^^ Yeah for sure.

I live in Altona Meadows and for the 25 years I've been here I've had my car broken into once.

I wouldn't say it's dodgy but just like any other suburb there is always a chance.
