broker

[Guest andrewjread]

heres the story. My skyline is getting the compliance plate early next week. After speaking to a broker about 8 weeks ago who said that he had found me insurance for this particular vehicle, I started the search for this car I have longed for. He said call back when it is ready for licensing and Ill send out the papers. Now that my car is almost ready, I have contacted him and hes said that he cant get insurance for skylines anymore.

Im 24yo turning 25 in May and its a 1993 gts25t.

What insurance company should I go to? I will get the best alarm and I have an advanced driving certificate.

Yes there are threads with same subject but I NEED fresh information.

I cant @#$% believe this has happened when its getting so close to having my car after waiting 8 bloody weeks.

Mine is insured with Elders through a broker - I'll try to chase up his contact details now.

[caminperth]

K - here's the contact details:

IPS Insurance Brokers

Ph - 9440 4055

These guys were the only ones interested in insuring my line. I'm 26, had only just got my license back before buying the car, but had a 60% NCB with my last insurer. The premium charge was about $800. A shiteload cheaper than the 2.5k that some of the bigger companies wanted..

Good luck..

Thanks caminperth. but this is the broker that I was talking about.

Andrew,

I had some troubles with Cam's broker too, but found this guy to be marginally more helpful. the price he quoted me was also pretty competetive.

Im in the same situation as you though. John's supposed to be getting back to me to confirm.

Is your car in Aus yet? or are you one of the people waiting for the Divvy.

Stupid slow boat.

[Guest andrewjread]

My car is here and waiting on the compliance plate Zanda.

Plate should arrive early next week. cant bloody wait. Pissed off about IPS though. I couldnt even contact him for about 4 days for him then to tell that he cant insure it. I think he was avoiding me.

[zanda]

yup. sounds familiar.

he did the same thing to me.

Just out of interest Andrew, how long have you had to wait since disembarking from the wharf.

John Fletcher got me insurance on my R33, but was crap for my Rex....... give him a go though.

see avatar.

other pics available, but nothing much more than the gold rims to rave about.

For first prize in the import broker poetic licence stakes, can anyone tell me the name of the company that makes the "aftermarket" factory option bodykit?

[Guest andrewjread]

Here tis. Have been waiting a long time for this beast. This was when it was still in Japan and alot cleaner. It was quite dirty when it arrived.

[Sneeza]

Who did you go through to get the car? I did mine the same way - it came in hella dirty hahahaha. Sometimes they have to be quarantined by customs and cleaned.

[Guest andrewjread]

What da ya mean sometimes. Mine was quarantined etc and I had to pay for every bit.

I had to pay for:

quarantine 53.50

quarantine treatment 95.70

tailgate inspection (what the @#$%) 66

I thought this was a pretty standard procedure

[Sneeza]

I meant - quarentined and cleaned - not just quarantined. If the car is too dirty - with things that customs think could cause probs in Oz - like soil etc. Then is has to be cleaned by them. My car just had dust - so I drove it from the wharf with her looking filthy as a pig. hahaha

[puckish]

My sister works down at the Warfs and has explained the Quarantine wash to me.

Basically it's to stop crap and bugs getting in from overseas. With Mad cow now in Japan I think it's worth it.

ALL CARS GET A QUARANTINE WASH !
