It's the new 'second car' we picked up. An EB II S XR6. Just found out that CGU wants to charge us a fortune now because we recetnly had a claim and because of a few traffic offences within the last 2 years.Cheers.RAA RAA RAA RAA RAA..............70 bucks 3rd party fire and theft for EB wagon.612 bucks XR8 ute(business use-higher premium),524 bucks for turbo..............2 or more policies =10% discount.RAA will be more leniant with traffic offences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdomain Member 98 Member For: 19y 6m 6d Posted 01/11/05 10:45 AM Share Posted 01/11/05 10:45 AM Hows the"little"XR going? Yeah, pretty good. It's got a good bit of grunt and a nice note. Sick stereo too :-D No dramas yet which is great. Maybe I'll cruise up sometime soon and show ya the little beast.And cheers for the info re: RAA. I did try them but they seem pricier for cars that aren't turbo. And when I first got a quote, they didn't want to insure me either cause the accessories value was over their ratio to the value of the car. Maybe I'll value the stereo system down and see if that passes. RAA put me through to their sister company who deal in things RAA don't want to Maybe why the price seemed higher than usual.And we did get a good deal on the EB xr6. Market value is between $5000 for a sh*tbox and $8000 odd for a shmick condition one. Stoked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdomain Member 98 Member For: 19y 6m 6d Posted 02/11/05 06:34 AM Share Posted 02/11/05 06:34 AM Cheers for the replies. I finally got insurance and RAA it is I just upped the price of the car and dropped the price of the stereo. That seemed to keep them happy. Might have to move my contents insurance or something else to RAA; then I'll get the 10% discount on everything. $555 atm so not as cheap as yours Terry but this is probably due to us writing off our last car recently, traffic offences and maybe age.
