Will be picking up a 2010 R35 next week.

Who has the best deal for insurance?

Sensible driving record (2 small fines in the last 12 years)

38 years old

I got a pretty good quote from Just Cars yesterday:

$4900pa

21yrs

4yrs exp, no tickets

Excess is pretty high though at ~$9000

My old $40k merc cost me more than that! Almost $6k pa

I just moved to AAMI, previously with Suncorp

my policy now with AAMI is about $2000 premium and $1000 excess. This was similar to the deal I had with suncorp before they jacked it up to 10,000 this year so got a quote and renewed with AAMI.

to let you know how fickle things are though, Druzilla had the opposite experience with AAMI (see thread), go figure.

rich parents?

Pfff, quite the opposite buddy.. I come from a working class family. I didn't want to be another working class man so I built my own business from the ground up. Is there a problem with reaping a few rewards from my hard work? I take offence when people make assumptions like this :P

You obviously don't follow your own advice as shown in your signature!

Haha! With 40,000+ posts, this guy needs to learn how to do it more often.

I had a sneaking suspicion you were an IMer after seeing the ads on your godzilla site. I steer well clear of clickbank products these days.

Send us a PM with what you have in mind.

Lol why so defensive?

Congratulations to you for doing so well at just 21. You must be very proud of your achievements.

They all do that. It's dumb because it makes customers mad; but it's free money for them if a customer just pays up.

I got jack of it with GIO last year and rang them. Told them that I did not want to do the ring around to get the price I wanted; and that if they forced me to do the ring around I would not be coming back any time soon.

Turns out coverage was available, and for the exact same price as the previous year (yeah, I know, it should probably have been slightly less). Go figure.

Cheers,

You take offence when people assume the norm? Most 21 year olds with 100k+ cars do have wealthy parents. He had a question mark at the end of his sentence, not an exclamation mark...

    • What are you planning to do specifically?  I would be very surprised if you need to learn any math for these 'few builds' you have planned for the future.
    • I transferred from full time service to Army Reserve, so I still have access, work has been super keen to get me in to work in the OPS realm, so just turning up to use the gym......and ovens, isn't causing any issues, apart from me needing to keep on telling them that I won't be doing any reserve days until I get my joint in Goulburn sorted  Basically I can now work whenever I want, for how long I want now, and it's all tax free Next time we have some fires or floods you might see me covered in mud, or cutting sick in some plant equipment cleaning up, the Reserves love getting in the news, LOL
    • Final finish outcome of 80°c was typical to the pics, I've turned the oven down to 50°c and will pick them up after the gym tomorrow  The before and after difference was amazing, the wrinkle paint has covered all of the casting marks completely It did take a couple of hours to key it all and get in all of the crevices, but, for me it was time well spent for the final outcome, but I have all the time in the world to do it at the moment  Ended up with 4 coats, each sprayed at different angles to get optimal coverage and thickness As for the fixtures and intake box thingo that hasn't made it, the supplier is apparently posting the fixtures, and, are now sending a different CAI that is in stock The replacement CAI is actually better than what I originally ordered, but will require a pod filter that locates under the front bar, still serviceable, but it basically removes the whole OEM filter box and ducts into the front bar, so filter cleaning will require ramps and the removal of some front bar undertray, not a war stopper, just some ramps and an additional 10 minutes work every few months From looking at it it is made from alloy pipe from the throttle body, through the CAI hole in the rad support, then right turning under the bar, luckily the wrinkle paint was on special and I got 2 cans for $30ish, so the alloy will get the same wrinkle treatment as the intake manifold, hopefully it turns up soon, either way, the car will be getting booked in soon, if the parts aren't here, I'll just get MX5 Mania to " make it work"  
    • I'm so glad base security is so high. I see they stopped some random codger from being able to just wander in off the street... 😛   PS, intake looks good!
    • So far so good, another hour and their done
