Guest Mal Guests Posted 21/05/05 02:05 PM Share Posted 21/05/05 02:05 PM I'm with Suncorp and they won't cover anyone under 25yo driving my car.. many of the big insurers have the same policy from what I've read.. you might find one around that will do it but you'll be paying for it bigtime.

That was with AAMI and the only reason they did it was because I had an existing policy, but others on this forum are well under 25 and had no trouble getting it through the likes of Shannon’s or Just Cars.But you may have to sell a kidney or two in order to pay the premium!Trent.

When I was 20 it was about $4200/year. Now im 21 its about $3000/year. So if you are on your P's, and you find someone that will insure you, I think they shaft you hard. Sux hey...

And I think NRMA also can insure you cause its a factory standard car with no engine mods done to it. Hopefully soon ill have another xr6t worst mistake ever selling that car Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
