No probs with mine. Just under $700, $20,500 full comp cover for NM35 ARX, NRMA, full no claim bonus, mature age (little do they know!).

Yeah but you're an old fart and you live out back of bum f@*k nowhere.

NRMA want to cover the 260RS for $11000 and charge $1900

Shannons will do it for agreed value but dont even ask about the premium

Just crap want $2000 for agreed value

Living in Sydney pretty much doubles my insurance costs :-(

There's a lesson in that, no legit company should ever call you and ask for your details, how do you know who THEY are? My bank anz did it to me for a while and I would just hang up on them how the f**k do I know who's on the other end.

The ATO will call you, on occasion, and perform POI (Proof of Identity) by asking you certain questions - they are random, and wont always be your address etc, but it can be. Of course you have the option of requesting that YOU call THEM back (through the national switchboard) if you feel hazy about it. I guess its better than them calling up and disclosing personal details without confirming who they're talking to.

On the subject of insurance, do you guys call up your insurance company every time you do a modification (ie some sort of bolt on upgrade) to your car?

Reasonably large mods (wheels, suspension, FMIC etc etc), yes.

Little stuff like catch cans, runner spacers etc, no.

on that a bank will contact you as well. They have to advise the Call being recorded, breifly what it regards without providing personal information, and then a verification procedure.

I work as a Financial Banking Ombudsman(FOS)

So I called shannons, and explained that I am an enthusiast. and they are happy to insure me at the age of 21 :D

My current insurance is with Justf**kheads and my premium was up't to 3200.00 for no bloody reason, and a $1500 age excess.(yehhhh... NO!)

was completely honest with Shannons, told em about my 1 month suspended licence, and a car accident that I was in with my supra. said thanks for letting us know and that was it.

It wasnt a big difference, but with my age it was definitely a cheaper option.

Premium is now agreed value of $28,000 with a premium of $2600 a year. Gonna go get a Cam's licence which will drop it to 2300~ a year.

Definitely better than justshit. Stil expensive but what can i do, my mistakes when I was young is now showing its course lol

is it under your name entirely? or under your parents..

Who you insured with? lol I would love that!! mines gone up to 3k with just car. i dont wanna stay wid em.

Yes it is in my Parents name, But.. SGIC know that i own and bought the car? so dunno how that works?

Doesn't Shannon's Own just cars tho?

just cars called back today. apparently its a scam running outta brisbane somewhere and its the same group of con-artists that did an AMII home insurance scam and got busted in 2005. They mainly targeted WRX and Supra owners (LOL) but there was a handful of stageas called too.

(side note: when my bank calls me (NAB they ask for DOB and address to confirm its me)

nah AMII is just cars parent company (although your no claim bonus doesnt carry over from ammi to justcars, bastards)

Old Fart maybe, I live in woop woop woop not butt fcuk, and who has leather seats, cheaper insurance and their car on the road! LOL, :nyaanyaa:

That $700 includes excess free glass where claims do no effect NCB and just got a chip which will be repaired free.

The car may be under your name, but for certain reasons, your dad may use it to go to work as he can park it securely and u take the train.. coz ur dad drives it more, he as longer experience.. then its cheaper.. i had to put it under me, coz i dont like asking dad for help.. lol sri lankans ...

as said.. Amii owns Just car as Amii got rid or their imports section.

LOL at this. mine was still expensid 3200+ or something.

but how do YOU know who it is?

Your right, so legally what you are allowed to do is asked for an extension, and their first name. if management they are obliged to provide a full name.(ask for the call to be escalated). Then you notify them that you wil be calling back on the Generic Number ie NAB 13 22 65, and to leave a note in the system explaining you are doing this.

Thats how you can confirm whether the call is legit..

Does Shannon offer unlimited mods and windscreen cover?

I turn 30 next month - I take it its better if I call back then?

only diference will be like $20 on ur premium

theres drops dramatically at 25 ***apparently***
