hey ppl,

I just got my 2003 ba xr6t insured, quote was crazy so they reccomend I rego'd it in my old mans name, and put me down as a secondary drive, was stoked when came back at only $430, with a low excess. I'm happy, was cheaper than my old ss ute. I'm only 23 btw. Market value was pretty sh*t only 18grand. but still heaps more than I paid for it. Oh it's with Ract.

I can't understand why all these yound ppl are paying so much, sweet talk the olds, and save thousands, ha. and I just let the old boy borrow it every now and then, keeps him happy.....

Thanks in advance!

I'm 21, insured with aami and its only $1100 (with windscreen) a year for me... im in QLD. Suncorp, allianz etc wont touch me and just car wanted $1800.

SGIO has updated their policy. They allow any legal modifications and they don't have to be listed.

RACV the same. Any mods as long as they meet RTA requirements. Don't have to be listed, only informed if making a claim.

I've been with Shannons for 2yrs now just got my renewal for my 3rd year and am now 25yrs old. Was paying around $1500 a year and now that im 25 its gone down to only $1420. WTF????? I've had an online quote from Just Cars and they're after $1490 mods included... I thought when ya turn 25 it drops better than $80 FFS... Any other insurers out there I should try that cover modified cars????

Mika try AAMI. I was with Just Car (from 20 yo, no-one else would touch me), same deal I turned 25 and they didn't drop the price; they were asking around $2300 and were a bit 'brief' with me when I enquired about the price on the phone so I said bye bye.

Then I rang AAMI (who allowed me to use my parent's no claim bonus, max for life) and now $1061 and I'm happy (26 yo). This also included my mention of a 'ECU / computer management system' and they said "yes" to an exhaust if I wanted it.

It helps if your parents are already customers, somehow they allowed me to have max no claim even though I was a 'new' customer.

And as far as the polling question for this thread: Just car 0, AAMI 1.....

Been ringing around to try and get an agreed value for my BA XR6 turbo.

Car cost me $23,000 and have put about $5000 worth of Nizpro goodies since.

Any recommendations re insurance company?, no one will give me an agreed value of $28,000. All want to do market value.

Many thanks,

Steve

Not sure if anyone else on here who has been with AAMI for a while has noticed a sharp increase on their last insurance bill?

My renewal came the other day and has jumped from around $650 to $980 with no changes to the policy at all.

A call to AAMI to check if it was a mistake proved fruitless with an admission from the phone sales folk there that it was a very significant jump and that I was still receiving the highest possible discounts.... rating 1 for life, 33y.o. etc.

A quick call to Suncorp - $680... I'm all for loyalty but a 50% increase in 12 months is crazy!

Anyone else had a similar experience with AAMI?

I am also with AAMI and my insurance on A ba xr6 t has jumped from mid $700 to $962.00 I am rating one for life had a stack last year that wasn`t migh fault but they said I had to wear it. I am in bentleigh area also value of car has dropped to $16,550 which is ridiculous for a car with under 80,000k`s on it.

amyone in bentleigh got a better deal or better value on car.
