18 y/o's with insurance for Skylines?

[jmp]

I was looking to import a GTiR, which I have found but insurance is really starting to get annoying.

My first bet was SGIO as I heard they do some imports and they said they would only insure the car for market value ($10,000 - yeah right thats all its worth) and the premium would be $5,000 year.

After telling SGIO to love the **** I set about rining Famous Insurance and apparently they don't insure people under 19 years of age ? Robyn said she would have to refer it to the manager and I would have to call back

Any other companies that will insure imports in Perth ? Is it worth going to a broker and what are the costs for their services like?

Cheers

Heya dude!

I'm with RAC but managed to get in before they started going strict o what imports to insure....

Your best bet is doing a search through WA threads for each thread in regards to insurance (belevie me there has been plenty of em!) from there have a ring around.... if no luck then perhaps give shannons insurance a call. Yeah I'd say with A broker you might end up paying just that little bit more.....but could be worth it in the end!!!!!

My friend greg never insured his 300zx...... about 4 months ago smashed it in Nbridge!!! I bet he wishes now he had insurance!

Hmmm. Sounds odd. Speak to g0df4ther, he is thru famous, i forget how old he is.

I am also through famous, but I'm 20 (but still a 16yr old at heart)

Good luck mate.

Dude I don't mean to sound rude. .. But I seriously don't like your chances.

Find a broker.. it may be your only option.

I'm with a broker called cgu along with a couple of my mates who are also with tha same broker and they got me a quote of $600 a year and thats when I was 17 so I thought that was ***in awesome lol, mind you its insured in my dads name with me as a secondary driver

Im 19 and have a GTS and Famous said they would insure me for around $2500 which is the best i can find so far so im probably gonna go with them. The car is a non turbo but (but will be getting a turbo when my insurance goes down), so i dont know if they will insure you for a turbo but im pretty sure they will if you have a clean record.

Tell us what you find if you go through a broker coz i was thinkin about doing that aswell:)

ah yes...im 19 but got insurance from them just before i turned 19 (the 'line was a bday present) so you shouldnt have probs with getting insurance. plus the fact that my car isnt even garaged at nite and they still insured me...

[puckish]

33Spec2 you pay how much for a GTS???

Thats crazy mate, if your record is clean then you shouldn't be paying more than $1800 tops. Speak to a good broker......

Do you reckon Puckish? I was told that was cheap! ive only been insured 4 2 years but as a second driver so maybe thats why its high

Do you know a good broker?
