And so I thought that I'd look abit more into this insurance and tried Shannon's. Well couldnt believe it they wont cover me at all. Apparently I need to have owned and driven a performance vehicle for a minimum of 2 years before they can look at me. How crappy is that! There slogan should be ....

For car enthusiasts who have had flash cars for ages so that we dont have a risk on our hands at all.

Wont be looking at changing any time in the near future (24 months at least!!)

Thought that I'd put in my 2cents... I got our 06 t insured with SGIO, I have a pretty good ins record but Mark (husband) has lost his lic thru 2many points, this was more than 5 yrs ago but he has had a few recent speeding fines and had a couple of claims. We have never been insured with this mob before.

Ins for $39,000 agreed value

Finance nil

$50 per day for hire car max 21 days

choice of repairer

1 free windscreen / yr

$350 xcess

Premium for 12 months $692.47

Our ins co that has our house and contents and 2 other vehicles and gets a staff discount - $1693.58 after discount??????

I really don't know how you guys are getting these prices. I am nearly 39, rating one and no finance on the car and cant get any were near $800 , let alone $650...

I just did a AAMI online quote, which I know is only a guide and came up with $1387 online and $1437 offline. I will attach a copy.. So far for me, Shannons come in at $1043 for $32,000 agreed value, which I reckon is still to much but, I just left Gio were I was paying $900 last year and the renewal was $1700 this year WTF..

its a joke...tell me about it...

sydney sucks for insurance..total crap.

I dont know how they expect that sort of money ...hell $2500 a year I could buy so much..I could understand $1000/$1200 but $2500 is bs...for that sort of money you would want to claim every year

im from the hunter region

im 20 years old green P plater and pay $2100 on my 2003 BA XR6T

What suburbs are you guys living in?

I pay $650 with AAMI, 28 years old, rating one, for an aug 06 ute with all the trimmings. Just replicated your quote EGOXRT with my postcode and it came back $720....but would be cheaper if transferred across from my current policy as it usually is.

That's farkin scary

Sorry if this topic has been covered before but I couldnt find anything.

My dilemma is im 20 years of age and about to buy a new BF XR6T most insurance companies wont even look at me.

The ones ive got qoutes from so far are justcar, sgio and rac. And they are all about $1500 per year. Does anyone know of any others that can accomodate me for a resonable price?

Btw I live in Western Australia

Any help would be great

Cheers

Ash

$1500 a year for some one of your age and a turbo charged car would be about right. I have heard of a lot worse.

that's a good price for a BF XR6T, but what is the excess?

I'm 20 and pay more than that. I've got a few mods on my insurance policy but still that's a pretty good price for your age.
