Insuring Lamborghini Gallardo For Under 21


Recommended Posts

Ok I'm in a little bit of a predicament my uncle up in Brisbane has recently purchased a 2006 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder and says his son (my awesome cousin) and I can drive it as long as we can find an insurance company that would cover us (without a ridiculous price tag) I was almost certain JustCar would insure us but I had little luck there I was hoping you guys would now any insurance companies that would even consider our application?

Little info

We havent had any claims, were both under 21, I'm on my Full's my cousin is on his P's and we both REALLY want to drive this car

Oh and Shannon's just rejected me as well....this is not looking good

Yeah good luck with that made. I think probably due to the price tag and your age you will have little to no luck finding someone.

Maybe if you try one of the smaller insurance companies like young and cool or people like that? or maybe that new one..pay as you drive or something?

Just start calling everyone. I doubt you would get anyone to cover your cousin as on his P's im pretty sure this would be classified as a high powered vechile and therefor illegal. I would probably focus on just your application.

GIO has a performance section for a while. Worth trying for. Also try an online quote, may slip through.

An Insurance Broker, maybe..?

I had to go through one with my Mitsubishi Lancer GLi cuz I was 19 at the time and just because the paper work said Lancer SV = Special Vehical just because of a bodykit, wheels and nothing else...

BTW show us some pics.

You want insurance for a 21 year old driving a 2006 Lambo, and you don't want a ridiculous price tag?

:D

I'd expect that IF you do find someone willing to insure you, you could well be looking at close to a 5 figure premium :yes:

PICS ARE UP DAMMIT HAHAH...isn't she just gorgeous?

LOL!

Yeah now I see. Man it looks awesome.

Is that, what looks to be a Porsche behind it in the 1st pic?

Also when you find insurance for it, drive it down to Melbourne and we have a SAU meet up.

You cant insure a vehicle that isnt yours. Your best bet is getting your uncle to list you as a driver.

And with your age, there wouldnt be a premium big enough that would accept you two as a risk.

Good luck!

Have to agree with you.

Think about it from their perspective. A couple "kids" under 21 want to pay you money to cover all the possible costs of repairs for a car worth $200k? Due to their age, they likely dont have a lot of driving experience, more along the lines of you CAN'T have a lot of experience due to your limited time at being able to have a license. Plus young drivers are more prone to speeding, etc even if you personally don't fit that category.

How much money would charge a couple of people that came to you, asking you to take on that risk? I wouldn't be surprised if they asked for $20k just to insure you if anyone actually agrees.

On the other note. Best of luck mate. Would be awesome if you actually got it covered.

i'm 29 rating 1 and drive a 33gtst that shannons class as "highly modified" and it's insured for 22.5k i pay $1600 per year

you are under 21 and want to drive a lambo gallardo that redbook value @ 265k so going on percentages here...

you should be paying $18,930 per year (plus 500 underage excess) :D

ouch...I'm 23 and pay less than you for the same thing with the same company

1. Your uncle's car is a sexy, SEXY car.

2. His garden looks really nice too - and I don't normally care about gardens lol.

3. I'm over 25. How about you get your uncle to insure me and I'll take you and I'll drive you and your cousin around for an entire day.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
