Insurance

[sic86]

First of all, is your ae86 insured?
If so, who buy and is it a good price?

Cheers

[sic86]

Also, with rego, don't know if other people have this, but im in QLD and for some reason my rego says the car is a sedan and is a 5 seater.

Cheers

[slide86]

hahaha
yeah when i bought my car the sticker said the same
but now it does not have rego

[Blood Child]

not sure who's the cheapest but i know that just cars lets u have unlimited mods as long as they're legal

[DRFT - 86]

Suncorp seem to be the go.... My mate just bought a 180sx SR20DET... only on P's and they quoted him around $240, 3rd party.... I know where Im going when I get my car back on the road.

[DRFTAE86]

$240 for a SR20DET 180! http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/ohmy.gif Thats amazing!

When my 86 was rego'd i was with 'just cars' and my 3rd party was about $440.
With few mods.

[DRFT - 86]

I know I didnt believe it at first either.... apparantly suncorp came first in a review of insurers in the Sydney Morning Herald not to long ago... definatly worth sussin out I guess

[slide86]

yeah but they may only allow 2 mods like alot of insurance companys

and say your car had mags, new stereo and exhaust
well then they will not cover you

[DRFT - 86]

Yeh possibly..... although not to sure as I have another mate whos with them.... hes got a AE92 twincam rolla..... it has Rims, big ICE setup, full interior retrim ect.... few other mods.... he pays around $240 aswell.... he has been involved in an accident before too.....
so yeh.... dont know ahy.. they seem like the go....

i'm with aami, it's under my dads name as when i bought the car i was under 16 and wouldn't let me insure it? http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/huh.gif go figure (this also happened with my rego). so it currently costs me $210 - $220 a year for third party (fire & theft http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/ph34r.gif ) bcos i currently havent been entused enoghh to swap everything ove into my on name.

[crazy86]

My sprinter is with shannons, Heap cheaper than AAMI and Just Car, and they list the car as Modified, ie as many mods as you want as long as its legal. They can also sort you out for on-track insurance too.

[DRFTAE86]

On track insurance? I wouldn't mind sum of that..... at the right price of course.

[crazy86]

Yeah, i dont think its cheap, but as long as its an event run by a cams club or something then its possible. But i dont htink it will cover "accidents caused by massif Tool-dom"

Shannons wouldn't give me a quote as I have made 2 claims in the past 5 years (not on this car though)

[Blood Child]

yeah i had the same problem with shannons cos of my recent suspensions and stuff. they referred me back to just cars

[sic86]

Yeah, im through Suncorp and I find them quite good. With all my mods etc. im paying about $550 year full comp and that is with 2 claims and 2 speeding fines (20 yrs old)

Cheers

[mumblezzz]

My hachi was insured through RACQ of all comapnies for like $230 3rd party. Though according to them my car was stock.

[evil86]

GO WIT RAC I THINK COS what MUMBLEZZZ SAID

[sic86]

But i got told that RACQ don't like modified cars. Most people in my area hate them.

Cheers

I've got mine insured with just cars and i'm paying $743 (stock other than sports steering wheel and pedals) Full Compo. Got a quote from them a while back for when I do all the work and it is only going to be $754 full comp (with CA18DET, Full suspension, LSD included) Only thing that I will get stung by is excess cos of a loss of licence a couple of years back. If I am at fault, will cost around $1200 for the excess.

EDIT:

Just got an update on my insurance, will now be $580 cos i am now on rating 2

[RobertoX]

insurance???????

shotgun security maybe?? lol

my sprinter was under RAA, cheap as chips

my ke70 isnt insured yet, and i dont think i will

the car is worth $400

and all the stuff in it is worth more lol!

i dont see it being worth it yet...

i dont drive like an ass during the day so no real reason for me to write off into some beamer

cos and i am young etc the excess would be $800-1000 which covers just about all cars anyway

they are a waste of time and paperwork in general

had i a nice car, late model, in good cond the story would be different

[Blood Child]

i got 3rd party fire and theft so nobody would have to see me cry
