you wouldn't have any bonus in that case and your speeding ticket will not help you a great deal. your only option would most likely be to buy the car under your mums name and be on her policy again. it'll end up being the cheapest that way.

otherwise try just cars. they'll be the only ones that'll talk to you pretty much.

here's a list of some insurance companies to try

Out of interest which one of the lads do you know ? PM me if you'd rather ...

To answer your question, every company can do it ... the real question is will your employer allow you to do it. The product works on the concept of salary sacrificing but is certainly much more than that.

There is a misconception that salary sacrificing means FBT reporting to be done by the employer = time & money on their part.

With ProsperCar this is certainly not the case and there is basically 0 % admin required from an employer’s perspective. This is the main hurdle that employers have an issue with (and one that there is really no issue with in the first place :() When employers find out it's really just as simple as them splitting an employee's pay by setup of a direct debit, which once setup remains constant throughout the term, most just ask what they have to do in order to get it going.

We usually find that once one employee is set up, most of a company's HR / Payroll will follow, as well as other employee's. Main reason being once they see how it works, how simple it is and how much they could be saving, they can't wait.

It is really so much more effective than anything else out there, be it due to the insurance or the ease of having all costs of running your car combined in one payment or the savings you receive on all those costs you'd usually spend in any case to run a car due to the way in which it's packaged with your salary.

I show people figures each day to run a car entirely which they have trouble comprehending. When I informed a client today he'd be looking at approx $1,300 for insurance on a car a little over $70k ... his first question was if I was talking on a monthly basis :(

I can't help but feel I'm ranting :D I'm out -

... before I forget, if anyone has a direct query they'd rather have answered personally --->

James @ Prosperion

nite all ..

    • Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays  
    • careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?
    • OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
    • I’m thinking that’s the route I’ll  go, thanks for the input!
    • Hey all, my 2004 Nissan Skyline 350GT overheated the other day with coolant boiling and leaking out of the coolant reservoir when I was parking. So today, I started it up again just to see if it was a thermostat/head gasket issue. After about 20 mins of running, temps were normal again, no coolant was leaking out and the upper reservoir hose was warm but my engine suddenly cut off. I checked the oil dipstick and cap when it was running and there was no white foamy residue and the exhaust did not have white smoke. I tried starting up the car again but it would only crank, similar to when I had a camshaft sensor issue just that now there’s no check engine light on the dash. Any ideas? Unfortunately I don’t have an OBD2 that can read the Nissan's programme.
