Depends upon a variety of factors.

Some of the insurance websites like NRMA allow for online quotes.

I'd expect around 3-4k for a Red P-Plater with an R33 Skyline GTS25.

Very expensive unfortunately.

EDIT: Just read that you said 3rd party insurance, allow for 1-2k.

Go to....

Insurance councils website, search for phone numbers and call companies or go online.

No one here will know or do it for you.

No one here will have the same price as you.

and definitely NOT as high as 1-2 grand.

Confusion of ctp and tpo?

Hey buddy, I'm a Second year green P plater with no insurance claims or loss of licence,

I Pay $94 dollers a month for third party with NRMA, I also have 2 Years roadside assistance membership and Do my Greenslip with them.

I Use to pay $185 per month with JUST CARS for full comprehensiveI, don't see the point now on a car only worth 8k.

Comprehensive for my R34 would have costed me $6.5k with NRMA for 21 y/o and fresh red Ps. Excess would be $2400.

Cars regoed under my dad as well as insurance which ended up to cost $1.4k. I say rego under your dads name or someone who would do it for you, who is over the age of 25 and have had 5 years on their license with no previous accidents.

Recently got into an accident and I'm gutted for $2.4k (still in process to prove that its not my fault).

Most companies wotn let you rego an import under someone elses name, and if they do, They WILL base the premuim on the highest risk IE the youngest driver.

full comp for me in R33 red p at 19yr old was about 2.7k wil a 3000 excess, Fully garaged in a decent area.

i went with Just Car third party fire & theft up to $10,000

set me pack about $700 per year - if you're just after third party without fire & theft you're looking around mid $500s

[GTR-N1]

+ Fire and Theft is a good idea whilst protecting any sort of 'thief magnet', so on a budget Danny, at least you've done the right thing

Good luck with that if you have an accident. They may not even pay a claim if you are driving it or deny insurance due to no disclosure.

Best to be up front and honest and build up your own No Claim Bonus rating..

this, be truthful, pay more at the start, end up saving down the track.

As a matter of fact, I recently got into an accident and a claim has just been lodged and pending. I'm covered as a non-frequent driver or whatever they call it.

[D_I_F]

You're very lucky they are even covering you at all.

[oweban]

Considering some people here work for insurance companies, and we know you're the main driver of your car.

[D_I_F]

Lol.. pwned!

[oweban]

By no means am I saying I'll be reporting anything; it's just that some companies take a more stringent approach than others.

I've heard stories in the past of someone my mum works with - her son drove her car (fairly new Corolla) a few times a week, and when there was a prang, the insurer (GIO) went around the neighbourhood asking how often he drove the car, as he was on there as a very limited use driver.

I'm not saying all insurers are like that - it's just something I've heard. And being a Skyline, I'm sure if they were into that kind of thing, they'd be more likely to do it.

Food for thought, is all.

Insurers have been known to recover payouts they've made after finding things written on websites, such as the above.

I've heard of one insurer having had paid out an accident that had occured on a racetrack, they were told it happened on the road. Owner bragged of "beating the system" he was quickly taken to court, and all money recovered.

Was it an R33 GTR, Matt?

Insurance companies aren't stoopid. Do the right thing and insure it under your name or if someone else has a financual interest in it (ie parent) then at least have yourself listed as a nominated driver.

I have done this with my younger brother before so he can drive any of my cars.

True, and then the young'un might (but not always) get a step up to a better no claim bonus when they take on responsibility with their own stand-alone policy.

The only (and personal) hitch is, what does the parent say when the insurer asks, "Now how often will the nominated driver be driving this vehicle?"

Of course we tell the truth don't we? Or the 'truth'?
