After reading this thread and hearing about people paying about the same for their R32's full comp as i'm paying for just third party +fire&theft i thought it was about time i gave NRMA a call......then i found out they dont insure people in VIC, the woman told me they usually forward people to the RACV. I didn't think they would but i gave them a call and sure enough they will Insure me with a car value of $18000 for $400 odd! that is epic, i'm switching today. The guy told me it's exactly the same as the NRMA policy just branded RACV.

Good stuff.

Totally agree here on Justin's thread.

What title does RACV give it?

What restrictions, if different from NRMA Vintage Classic & Veteran?

The RACV calls it : Veteran, Vintage & Classic Car Insurance here is the link: http://www.racv.com.au/wps/wcm/connect/racv/Internet/Primary/insurance/car+insurance/veteran,+vintage+_+classic

The guy i spoke to said it's exactly the same as the NRMA policy

The guy i spoke to at justcar when i called to cancel my policy couldn't believe i was leaving to goto racv, he seemed to think they had made a mistake and i was just lucky to not be refused by them.

I tried to explain to him that, No it's not a mistake and it's different to normal racv because it's the classic, vintage, veteran, but he still seemed doubtfull.

when going ahead with my new 'racv' policy the girl told me that it is exactly the same insurance as the nrma, (ie if i called nrma from nsw wanting classic car insurance she is the same person that i would be talking to), She said it's actually a better deal with the racv as i get 8 free roadside assistance call outs per year as opposed to the nrma's 2.

I'll vote for thread of the year..........certainly has made me a happy man

Good to see Shannons getting a run for their money.

however will be interesting to see this time next year with everyones renewals. Will they increase or not?

these lower premiums + high performance cars (lower exposure being limited use though!) may seem not enough 'premium pool' to cover claims (large losses) meaning an increase of premiums + excess.

however if they are on to something good and have good portfolio management - they are on to a good thing and its a winner for you guys!

maybe even someone ex shannons/lumley works there now and seen how to run this segment !

good bye shannons!! time for me to leave them too...but its only my mx5 I'd be able to take there...thats if they offer storage/laid up cover.

Pfft. I would still rather switch and save $1200.

As for thread of the year??? About insurance. Pretty boring thread. But I guess it's saving people a lot of dollars.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
