  1. Well I've finally done it..... No I haven't had a crash, well not recently anyway... I've sent my search form off to my Good man Troy from Iron Chef, oh yeah So it's a waiting game now until I get my new baby. I'm sure this question has been asked a million times, I even typed 'insurance' in the search option but I couldn't find any info I was after. I also have a background in the insurance industry, don't judge I'm out of the game now. So I know how limited my options are regarding insurance on an imported car. This will also be my first time dealing with a car I have imported, it's actually my first time with the Nissan brand altogether. So I want things to go as smoothly possible. So who does everyone recommend? It will obviously be full comprehensive cover and a daily driver. Thanks, Paul
  2. Good morning all. My R32 GTR is now no longer on daily duties and has become the weekender it deserves to be. This amongst some other things has prompted me to look into freshening up my insurance policy. I for one do not like to be the that guy who gets caught out if the worst were to happen to my car. as we all know recently the USA has started to take all the Japanese export R32 GTRs and have driven the price up allot as expected. as their limitations lift over the next few years the R32 and R33 GTRs will get harder to replace. this can be seen already, I have just done a search on carsales. 2 years ago the average value would have been $17-23k. some cheaper bad examples, some higher priced ADM and highly modified cars. now, and have a look for yourself. the cheapest 32gtr is $24000... that's the cheapest. the average is now as im writing this post $34000. that's the average taking out anything over $50k or ADM. Mine is clean and relatively unmodified... its at least still insurable. so if I were to replace my GTR I would expect, if i bought from carsales (which is how just car get their averages when agreeing on a value most times) I would be up for about $30-$34000. that's not including on roads and my excess of about $1k. so lets say about $35,000.00 hows that for a jump in values. now im not looking at this as a wide eyed kid thinking my cars worth whats its not, im just looking at the averaged from available value. but im confident could get $30k for my car if sold today. so, I have contacted my insurer who currently has a value in the low 20s with a $900 excess, that's just car. im now looking into what they can do with the agreed value, pointing them to do their own market research and with the explanation of the USAs influence on the import value and looking at what the limited insurance market can offer in competition. also they have an agreed value as I said, but their market value is $17000 btw, probably relevant when I bought it but ... imagine trying to get a 32gtr for $17000 today, gumtree shitter maby.... My question... what value do you have your GTR insured for? im asking specifically for R32, but R33 and 34 are not about to start dropping any time soon. are you insured for what it would costs you to replace or within reason? who did you use? ...discuss ill post back my results to btw so others know what's available or at least realistsic, it would be good if we got some info on this for values, premiums are too hard cos everyone's situation is different but hopefully no one gets caught out and given a cheque for half their cars value when paying for an agreed amount they didn't research.
