HOTRDE Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Im with Just Car... Paid $1,250 this year for full comp, including mods such as exhaust and cooler. Im 22 yrs old with no accidents etc. I got many quotes before I went with Just Car and they were the cheapest by far and were almost the only ones that would insure me. As it has been said before, if it seems to good to be true then it usually is. Besides I would rather pay a few more hundred a year and know I am definately covered than be with a dodgy company who some how finds a clause in the paper work and makes them not liable to pay up when you have an accident or your car gets stolen.

D_I_F Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 With Shannons they don't insure anyone under 25 if their only car is a import/modified car. Sometimes they will if you don't use it as your daily but it all depends on your circumstances they are very selective because they are a low risk insurers.

shamus Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Is anybody worried by the online quoting Repair System that Famous uses? http://www.claimsservices.com.au/index.htm Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/12142-need-insurance-want-cheaper-insurance/page/37/#findComment-3302962 Share on other sites More sharing options...

shamus Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 and then there's this clause (taken straight out of the PDS) This Policy Does Not Cover: ……..loss, damage or liability and/or compensation for damage caused whilst any Insured Vehicle is being driven by or is in charge of any person…… ….. who is charged with driving in an Unlawful Manner or contrary to the Road Traffic Act in Your State or Territory, resulting in loss or damage to the Insured Vehicle/s or any Third Party property.

shamus Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 so if you fail to give way and hit someone (hence contravening the Road Traffic Act) you won;t be covered..... unless I'm reading it wrong...

GT-R32 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) perhaps rules have changed since last time you spoke with them GT-R32? Underwriting guidelines can be bent or interpreted in many different ways. Going on what you guys are saying 21-25 seems to be OK on some (all/most?) occasions, then on exceptional ones I have heard of under 21s being insured by Shannons (my mate who was a deadset car nut - he's now 23 and still with them).

GT-R32 Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Id still double check as they could have changed since last time Agreed. It's an ever evolving thing dependant on claims figures/profits/loss and statistics.
