JH32 Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 Originally posted by Beeble heard rumours of ppl getting prices around a grand that's all.... :bahaha: sorry mate ... seriously ... try Famous Car Insurance in Subi ... they seem to be able to sort out some fairly reasonable prices. Also, Suncorp Metway is another one to try. Good luck! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/7653-insurance-advice-pls/#findComment-112031 Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisroi Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 well we do have a policy with h.b.f as paul at autoworx put us onto them and said they were doing good deals for awhile so we are not complaining. we have been with rac for over 20 years but they didnt want to know about the skyline. so thats my 2 cents worth.

NO_RSPECT Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 Hey Chris, Are you the guy that gave everyone my direct number a while ago so they could call me at HBF for quotes. IF IT WAS (and only if it was) thanks for that, a total of 22 phone calls from hoons with GTR's, silvias, 180sx's who are 23 and mostly younger with at fault accidents and losses of licence etc. what a good day that was If not then I am still looking for the guy. Either way I probably authorised the cover for your wifes car. Insurance is very scared of taking risks with imports as there are no age/driver skill restrictions for buying them, especially with the power that most can put out, same goes for V8's ya know. I mean I know excel drivers smash cars all the time, but cos we are a specialised group we get the sh*t end of everything. Its almost hopeless. and worse if you have had a crap history. HBF do cover imports. so give them a call and tell them that someone else just did one if anyone says we dont do it. If you get too much opposition ask to be put through to James and leave a message for him telling him you want a quote for an import. DO NOT TELL HIM YOU HEARD IT FROM HERE. If he tells me that I AM GOING TO BE NOT HAPPY JAN.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 Sorry to inform you guys but I only pay $600 per year for my GTS-t, and it was only $700 when I was under 25. It seems that the insurance companies have one mad recently, but if you had insurance before then its not so bad, just hope I don't have an accident, they'll be waiting for an excuse not to renew at that price.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 I'm with QBE, I've got a 60% NCB, and have been with them for a few years. I don't know how I managed to score such a good deal, but I'm not going to rock the boat.
