Broken Glass ....

[muck]

my car was broken into today..... a smash and grab attempt.....

thankfully... the guy i buy coffees from regularly was taking out the trash at the time...

thankfully.. i just switched from just cars to shannons...

what a pain in the arse......

[beastien]

That sucks big time, I know how you feel mate, wouldn't you just like to get hold of them

That's f^&ked, where did it happen?

Did they manage to get anything, or just cause you a whole lot of inconvenience?

[Terminal]

i've always had the impression "who'd want to steal from a volvo?" but it looks like there might be some theives out there who know what it really is.

i had my R33 broken into twice, both times losing the stereo and other assorted goodies. it really grinds my gears when i hear about that shit happening.

i hope it doesn't cost too much for replacements.

Sorry to hear muck; I know exactly how you feel... I had my windows smashed in a theft attempt (they didn't steal anything though)... it's a complete pain in the arse to find the parts required - especially the rear quarter window!!!

Hope your insurance sorts it all out (if you're going that way) and your car is back on the road soon.

Thats an absolute bitch Muck. Which window did they break? That will be the next challenge - trying to find a replacement. Hope it wasnt any of the tinted windows.

Best of luck

broken the front passenger window...

the break in happened in the city.. where latrobe meets victoria street and spring street.... parked on latrobe street.....

it seems its not safe to put your car anywhere these days..

broken the front passenger window...

Best of luck with fixing it / resolving the issue.

Maybe post up your quotes for fixing ?

Only thing to do with these type of people is to hang the fckers up by their balls!

Good to hear that they werent able to steal the car itself, still, some people have no bloody respect!

[muck]

front glass is $740 from japan + whatever they charge to fit it..

funny you said that hang them by the balls. i sue that expression as well when im really [issed of

[mcnamg]

muck you said that it was good that you changed from shannons to just cars why is that??

I am looking at an insurer at the moment and would be interested in your opinion between the two

[beastien]

Yeah me too, I'm with Just Cars, and my renewal is due in about 2 months.

8OOSTED might be able to shed some light on this one.

thats the guy im talking about i dont know hes user name but i know his email

[mcnamg]

yeah guys fair enough your with shannons but nobody is answering the question why are they better? and i dont just mean price. I underwirte insurance for a large home and contents insurer and I want to know what the policy is like I am going to read both product disclosure statements but am interested in personal expeirences people have had as customer service and claims efficiency can also make a big difference I personally would pay more to get the best product and not just the cheapest

[stasis]

i've heard shanon let you choose your own repairer and i think no need for a second qoute. i might be wrong have to check first.

[GoldZilla]

Shannons gives you (from what I can remember):

* choice of repairer;

* first option to buy the wreck if your car is written off;

* higher level of third party property coverage (I think it's $20million, compared to $5million with JustCars)...

I'm sure there's more, maybe _800STED_ can give us a better idea of the differences.

*1 free glass replacement a year

*much lower excess $500 compared to the $500 + $700 or some shit jci want.

*pay by the month
