OK ok..so I know this has been covered a few times before.....BUT.....things change, people / situations change, businesses change over a short time..

So please allow me to start a CURRENT thread on whose got the cheapest / type of insurance cover and CTP (Compulsory Third Party - is this for Sydney only?) how much for, from where and driver detail

Let me begin:

Insurance - Third Party Fire & Theft - Just Car Insurance - $499 / year (covers damage to other persons car and $10,000 to me in event of fire and theft)

CTP - QBE - $516 / year

Driver - Male 33yo.

If you get a quote from Shannons for Fire/3rd Party Property/Theft & then Shannons CTP (through loyalty), the CTP may be cheaper; in which case add the two together and see if it is less than the $1015 combined quote you've got already.

Keep in mind that Suncorp/Metway & Shannons & AAMI & Just Car & API are all in cahoots with one another now.

True, a lot of these companies are owned by one corporation or something, I read that somewhere - Shannons dont do third party fire and theft and theres only 7 companies who do CTP.. Whicehever ways, Australians are ripped off big time by big businesses..

Suncorp owns Shannons.and Just car and AAMI.

You won't get a.CTP discount but you can push a personal insurance discount if you have 3 products with them.

I'm doing NRMA CTP and Suncorp Insurance.

Rego and CTP was 380 in Qld and Insurance was $41 a month full comp.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
