guys what is the deal with insurance as if you have an accident

iam getting insurnace for my 180sx in prob feb next year.

now i have been driviing for 1 year third parity and iam 50 50 driver.

and just cars wont put me on rating 5 the bastards.

but if you do have an accident what is the deal? does your rating drop down by 1 or does it go all the way back to 6?

if i was on rating 1 and had an accident and it was my fualt will it drop? and if it wasnt my fault what happends?

and also if you had insurance with another company like racv on your parents car . like one of you guys said. and then you have an accident with your car what happends

As far as I know:

1. If you have an accident and need to make a "claim", you lose your "no claim" bonus, I presume you go back to the worst rating

2. 3rd Party Comprehensive does NOT give you a no claim bonus.

Just Cars told me last week they don't acknowledge that you are on your parents policy. They said they don't, don't want to know, not counting for didly squat. So check which insurer you go through first before applying this idea.

I do know Suncorp will take it. But as my mother has sinced passed away, and there is not record of me being on this policy i got no chance.

While on hold with Just Car on the telephone they say that if you have have third party cover for the last 5/6 years, they will give you 60%NCB.

Suncorp is a more reputable company but once you are over 2 mods and are <25 ur insurance premium skyrockets.

Most young ppl i know are with Just Car, but i would like to know anyone who has had to claim with them. Good or bad. So if u can PM me of any experiences that would be great.

that is if you have had third party with them only i believe. i remember the hold messages. i've spent alot of time on hold with insurance companies

NIZ30 is right about Just Cars not accepting your NCB if you were a nominated driver. you need to have had cover under your name for them to acknowledge it. i tried this one too:(

Just Cars Insurance is operated by AAMI, so they are just as reliable as Suncorp. I am 22 and went through Just Cars to insure my R32 GT-R for $3200, i can do unlimited modifications to my car as long as 1. I tell them and 2. They are roadworthy. The next cheapest was AAMI itself for $4400....

I've just moved from canberra to sydney. Im with Suncorp. I told them of the change of address and my premium has almost doubled. man I thought Mosman would be low risk. Any way called up famous, there qoute was better than I had with suncorp in canberra.

Are these people reputable, saw there add in HPI. Or are they too good to be true???

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
