Know anyone that insures R34 GTR (1999) Vspec???

[swoop]

I'm having trouble finding an insurance company that will insure my GTR R34.

I have called AON, Heath Lambert, Famous, SHANNON's, JUST CARS and they can't help. Famous says they don't so cars over $60k...that's rediculous. Can someone clarify this???

I'm 30yr old and have 60% so I don't know why it's so hard.

Please let me know if you know of anyone who have their R34 GTR insured with someone.

Swoop - Im with Shannons. The definitely can do it. Did you ring or get a quote on-line?

PM me if you want to know my preimiums or anything.

[NuGGeT]

Try Response Australia. They're Based in Ringwood, VIC.

i thought shannons and just cars specialised in insuring imports?

[mcada]

So did I. Maybe they're a little itchy about R34 GTR's cos they're so rare at the mo...

[chaos]

probably didnt wanna fork out the $100k or so to replace it if it was stolen

[mcada]

that would be my guess, as well as the fact that parts are hard to come by

My friend had his R32 GTR insured via a group that was underwritten by Heath Lambert. He was the same age and with 60% NCB, and had it insured for agreed value. He had 2 claims with them and said that they were excellent. I will get you the contact details and more info.

Good luck with the insurance...

I would probably sus out how owners of ferrari's & porsche's etc (exotic high performance cars) go about getting insurance becuase i would class a 34 VSPEC in that category...

CLK430 (Value $140K) - RACV $1900 PA

E55 AMG Supercharged V8 (Value $240K) - RACV $1400 - Yes "That's what I said - $1400" she replied "sir we'll send you a check for the difference"... I couldn't believe it!!, but happy to receive the $$$rebate. So exotic performance, I'd consider the E55 as exotic & not the CLK430, but thats the way the insurance coy's see it who cares

The R34 GTR are in a league of their own. I didn;t have any problems with Just Cars in Victoria regarding a quote on the R34. Whether that had anything to do with all our current policies with AAMI, I dunno. We also had a GTR R33 insured with Heath Lambert but I'm going back oooohh "1998-99"

I say Swoop, if you worried about the insurance & can't get it... sell it! to me - just kidding, any colour except black..

Yes, Heath Lambert is negotiating with another underwriting to do imports again but at the moment, they don't do it.

As for selling my car...black should be the only colour you should buy....make me an offer. hehe.

i just insured my R32 Vspec... 25yo got it for $2200 through shannons... u should have no probs dude

Have you tried Suncorp Metway?

umm I don't have an R34 GTR (damn shame that) but I'm the same age and NCB as you, and they insured me, reasonable prices and pay-by-the-month too...

although I've heard they're not that keen on imports anymore (current customers excluded )...also being in Sydney might be a problem - they insured me in canberra cos it's still considered pretty safe but i'm don't know if they do sydney (they are Brisbane based).

My R34 25GT was easy to insure with Just Car.....put the turbo on...still the same premium but considering an R34 GTR is just leagues beyond my one, maybe they won't touch it?
