XtRmn8 570Nm @1800rpm Donating Members 2,441 Member For: 21y 1m 23d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 05/03/06 01:15 AM Share Posted 05/03/06 01:15 AM That is just outrageous!! Do you have a real bad driving history or something?? Could it be because where you live??When I bought my car (BA Fairmont) and got quotes for insurance, the annual premium for a BA XR6 (NA) was about $200 more. I am turning 23, have full NCB and the Fairmont is insured for $28800 and the annual premium with RAC in WA is around $580. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a real bad driving history or something?? Could it be because where you live??I have a near-perfect driving record & until December 2005, I hadn't been booked for over 6 years, with one fine the only blemish on my record. I have a Rating 1. It must be a lot to do with where I live but I don't understand the rest. I'm going to call the NRMA today and see if they can give me some sort of an explanation as no-one else pays anything near what I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's playing with who? Sydney suburbs will skew the premiums somewhat, but if anyones premium is much less than mine for CORRECT INFO, I would like to know so I can quote from their company.

INPURSUIT Fastest Taxi In Melbourne Donating Members 701 Member For: 18y 8m 4d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 26/03/06 06:15 AM Share Posted 26/03/06 06:15 AM I recently got a ba xr6 n/a insured with RACV and they quoted me at 1700 and that's for me (18 year old driver) with excess of 800. when I was ringing around for quotes AAMI are able to drop the price of the insurance but as a consequence you get a higher excess rate.

G6ET8U Playing with Sports Bikes... Silver Donating Members 1,927 Member For: 19y 16d Gender: Male Location: Whistling, GTX. Posted 26/03/06 06:37 AM Share Posted 26/03/06 06:37 AM I am 28yo and tried to get insurance with AAMI (live in Ferntree Gully about 30 mins from Melbourne) and they denied insurance to me as I wasn't 30yo, saying that they WON'T insure an XR6T with ANYONE under 30 driving it... seems to be different from what I have heard here... before this I did an 'online quote' with AAMI before I bought my T and had entered all of my details and that of the car I was going to buy and got all the way to the pay screen but stopped as I hadn't bought my car yet so was only looking for quotes, I then kept the 'online quote' number from the net and called once I had bought my T and I then quoted that number to the guy on the phone when I rang up to get my insurance and the customer service guy on the phone told me that AAMI won't insure me as I am not over 30yo... he said you need to try Just Cars... he then hung on me and transferred me to Just Cars...For the record AAMI were about 75% of the premium that Just Cars offered me (and then reneged (sp?) on) which is about $1150 a year...Why? How come some of you boys have been able to insure with AAMI but are all younger than me? I have no accident history and am Rating 1?Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
