No one wants to insure me

[G0DF4Th3R]

Hey guys, sorry to flood this forum so much but I need your help. I can't find any company willing to insure my car coz no one wants to insure imports for 19 year olds. any ideas as to who might be able to help? anyone in the business? thanks...coz my mum won't let me drive out the car till i have insurance..

hey dude you should probbaly be getting your parents to ring around for you a bit, i mean i know they are not as dumb as they used to be with % of drivers but it does help a lilttle my insurance is in my dads name but i am %90 driver

also be carefull once you have asked rac or someone for a quote and they give u one thats it you cant go back and change it straight away, so when you ask your questions try to be hypothetical and don't give them names straight away untill they can give u some sort of ball park figure

[Pva_Glue]

if your car is Turbo with your age...then No

RAC gave me a quote of 3800 6 months ago..... a lot of places are stopping imports

[G0DF4Th3R]

i called RAC this afternoon and they said no...when i asked if it was because of the age they said they don't do GTSTs anymore but GTS are ok coz they're non-turbo..

I got my R33 GTST insured with RAC just 2 months ago for $809 p/a. Mind you I am an old bastid with 60% no claim.

Try one of these :

Harringtons :9388 1299

QMDN 1800 644 383

Shannons (02) 9958 7666 www.shannons.com.au

Torque Underwriting 1300 369 769

ALL-STATE insurance (07) 3205 3311

Suncorp Metway 13 11 55 www.suncorpmetway.com.au

Just Cars 13 13 26

Unique Car Insurance (03) 9898 9400

I think Torque gave me a quote in the same range as RAC.

wonder why? i would have thought the more on the road the cheaper it would be for them to repair all those fender benders!

and besides, would you not be better off insured under your parents name? (seeing as they probably own it!) :eek:

U can probably get aroof for eal cheap but stuff like front bars and susp will be all broken.

one of the friends of the family is a manager for rac the reason they stopped insurance for imports is for parts they cant find them for imports (they must be ***n blind) but neways its alright for existing members as long as u dont let ur insurance laps so pay it on time. so for god4ther u r gonna have to go to a interstate company for insurance or there r a couple of companys a specialise in only imports cant remember company names but get on the net and have a search.
