Im sure the topic has been hashed over several times......

Just got my policy renewal today and nearly fell over cause in the 2 yrs ive had my car the policy has gone up over $400 bucks! And ive never claimed or had any driving offences what so ever!

Im insured with Lumley Special Vehicles.

2008 policy was $1000

2009 policy was $1250 ish

today $1440

Can any of you other 34 drivers or anyone in general tell me who you insure with and approx how much, cause this is getting out of hand the policy going up by a couple of hundred every year!

Thanks Donna

Seriously change your insurer. I am with Shannons on an agreed value deal for 6/700 a year (cant recall excactly without looking at the policy)

You are getting right royally rogered atm.

Even though Suncorp owns Just Car and Shannons have you tried them for a quote too? R33 GTST with Just Car was $1400 at 25 with perfect history in Toowoomba. Suncorp quoted $690 at the time iirc

I find that hard to believe. I've rung Shannon and Suncorp just to check recently and Shannon doesnt insure a daily car and Suncorp was like 2k. I'm sticking with Just Car for now at around 900 premium and 1.5k excess.

PS: Daily Car = one and only car regardless of how many times you drive a week. The other condition to fulfil if you have 2 cars is you can only drive the insured car for 2 or 3times a week if I remembered correctly.

I believe AAMI owns just cars, not suncorp. But they won't insure anything modified/import, they'll just direct you to just cars.

Just cars however will insure anything, but they will charge more than AAMI. It was about half as much to insure my shitbox XF with AAMI than it was with just cars

    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
    • I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
