So, apparently every insurers decide to jack up on the price this year.

Awaiting for an email from LSV regarding a quote after I'd contacted them last evening.

If it's still a complete joke, time to consider buying something else which I'd struggle to get myself to viewing/test-drive/researching/etc...

Also something to ad about Shannons....

I've also got house and contents with em, and i've had to make a claim when some low life muppet scum stole my mountain bike from my garage. They were nothing but AWESOME, and i got paid out current market value of my mountain bike (minus excess of $200).

Dealing with Shannons is very easy!

Check out my thread which I posted about 2 months ago. The bastards at Just Car put mine up $1400 and I've made NO CLAIMS!! When I called to lose my sh!t at them they told me it was becuase of the floods in QLD and the hail in VIC.......thieves. Lumleys and Shannons are MUCH better if you can convince them to cover you. Better on price, much much better on service. Just car is aimed at younger guys who drive imports with no other insurance options to turn to, so they exploit this fact and charge ridiculous amounts for their cover.

I got another quote for the BRZ - and it's gone up, $1550. I'll be shopping around once the time comes, although I like being with Shannons I cannot justify that much money for full comp at my age and Rating 1 for life.

i've called racv out of curiosity. 26yr old male no prev accident history etc etc....they have no "market value" for the r34 gtt so on an agreed value of $16.5k it came to be just under $1,200 a year.....which isn't bad really.

Called up justcar they wanted $2.8k.....go figure, ill probably go with racv

So glad I saw this thread, I've just started shopping around for insurance because Just cars are charging me $1700 for insurance on the R32 gtr, Shannons just quoted me $1800 with agreed value or 25k on a limited 1-2 days a week use. List of mods (standard stuff: ecu, zorst, coilovers, wheels) I've had a no claim history and one speeding fine I'm rating 1 and 26yo. I thought that Shannons we're supposed to be really good to go with and I've got friends with the same model car using them and their policies are $500 cheaper.

Insurance companies using that as justification for a rise just means call another company... I've had no such increase with Shannons.

shannons didn't increase mine... i know jci increased krysisisisiu's

I spoke to Shannon's 26 rating 1 no claims fines etc they were 1k more than JCI!

JCI tried to put my premium up $250-300 at renewal I rang and said get stuffed I'll go elsewhere so they left it the same rate which I was fine with on my Lexus was $1300p.a no ridiculous excess and 48k agreed value just got my a5 no extra charge and agreed value is even higher so can't complain..

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
