I just filled in the form for an online quote for a gst-t and they replied by saying that cover for the gts-t is under review due to "lack of available parts" , and weren't allowed to give any quotes untila decision is made.

what a crock of shit

there's only one reason why its under review, and we all know lack of available parts is not the reason

they should at least come clean and say why they really don't want to insure them

damn media influce, irresponsible drivers, and theives -> least he's goin to jail:D

Give em a call or see them face to face, myself aswell as many others have RAC insurance. Thats one advantage of the net.... you can post stuff up like that and not have to worry about taking abuse from a potential client!!!

If still no then go to your local RAC and if they say the same kick up a bit of a stink....

At least this way you have tried and not just let it be.

I'm with RAC too and recently moved house, they said my new place has reduced my premium YAY! by a whopping $55 (from 2200/year to 2150/year) big hairy deal.

The problem is they sent me the papers confirming the new premium and it says "1992 NISSAN SYLINE GTR COUPE 6 CYLINDER, 2500cc" but I told 'em it was a '93 GTST.

Now I'm dreading calling 'em up to correct this incase they say "Oh, I'm sorry we don't insure GTSTs anymore". BASTARDS!

Do you think they'll refuse a claim (god forbid I need to make one) if the policy states an R32 GTR when I actually have an R33 GTST?

Calling them to get a positive result on the insurance probably wont help. I am insured with them, and when I rang with a general question about my policy they told me that when my policy comes up for renewal - they wont run with it anymore - too expensive they said.:confused: Time to start looking elsewhere

100 percent correct there dude! I think a lot of us Gtst owners were insured as 32 GTR's, so quite a few of us had to change with no hassles. better off changing coz they do ANYTHING to get out of paying you if something goes wrong!!

If you wanna see em pack there dacks do what i did!

Me "Hi I'm interested in insuring a GTR/Supra here is my client number......."

RAC "Oh yes Daniel i have your details here, is that supra you want to buy a turbo or non turbo?"

Me: "Supra will be twin turbo "

RAC: "We don't insure twin turbo's we have a strict policy BLAH BLAH BLAH"

Me: " THEN WHY HAVE YOU INSURED ME AS A GTR TWIN TURBO!"

RAC " Oh Ummm AAhhh Yes Sir, it seems there was an operator error when putting it in, I will correct it for you straight away sir"

Me "Hmmm strict policy?"

RAC "terribly sorry our apologies"

ehehe always good for a laugh!

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
