Yeah i have done some research and stags are cheaper to insure.. dont ask me why because i really have no idea.

All my homework is done ;) yeh it has mods but pritty stock stand at the moment. Its not the 1st import i have come across so hopefully i will be driving it soon... Its in compliance at the min....

Hmmm yeah I just tried Just Cars if I owned a Stagea - heaps cheaper. Weird.

Anyways - yeah - hope it's fairly close to stock. If you need to get more than a simple check ID at Regency (ie: pits) it can be a major headache. Check out the SA part of the forum (defects, etc), for other peoples experiences.

Just Cars let you adjust your excess in favour of your premium...as an example, at age 24 my premium is now $800 a year premium for full comprehensive. That's with a licence suspension in the last couple of years and a claim last year. Don't ask me about my excess...it's on par with some of the higher premiums floating around these forums.

I don't believe that will be the end of your excesses becky...there should be more to it. They usual have standard excess, age excess, vehicle excess and "adjust" excess (if you changed your premium).

P.S. welcome!

Yeah i use to be an insurance consultant so i no theres always hidden extras in small print. The quote was just a rough quote on the internet so i would check it out more and call Just Cars before i went ahead and bought it. ;)

Thanks for the welcome. I can already see this site is going to help me out heaps

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
