FTO AUSTRALIA

is it a drama to change insurance companies??
it seems like im payin a fortune with GIO n they were the cheapest!!

then again im winging bout this because ive heard of a lot of people with the same car practically payin half...

nope, as simple as finding a new one and telling your old one to go stick it.

but if u r under 25 and live in sudney.... good luck finding cheap insurance for your FTO (import + young = $$$$$$$ on insurance)

hm yeah true i sorta guessed what im payin is normal...considerin NRMA basically told me to "stick it" lol

how much are u paying?
have a look through this section, i think theres a thread somewhere comparing what we pay for insurance.

fully comp forgot exact but prety much 3400

sounds about right....

just do what i do, dont pay full comp, and the money u save in 5yrs can buy u another fto lol

my next ride.....s2000

b!tch

ill post u out my fto

I'm with Just Cars and I'm paying $2500, it would have been $2000 but I listed some aftermarket stuff. Check them out if you can, and have a try of Shannons, you never know who they'll insure.

I'm hoping to go with them for my insurance next year.

I'm paying $1060 with Just Cars & I thought THAT was a rip off ... the most i've ever paid was about $1500

Next year I'm just going with Third party fire & theft...

me love u long time

lol

oh and oodLes, i checked shannons the other day, and they wont even want to hear from her (19 = way too young for shannons, i think they need u to be either 25 or have had your license for 5 yrs or something like that as a min)

It seems to be absolutely case specific. Some people under 25 have been able to be insured, and others say that Shannons tells them that they haven't had enough experience with a high powered vehicle or something similar.

Then theres the times you mentioned where they say you need to be on your license for a certain amount of time.

Agreed it is case specific but I found with talks with Shannons they really love people that can prove driving skill (ie. competition licences and have raced with proof). Will be calling them next year after I've turned 25

pft i have ages untill "25" thats bollocks

well, and shannons are real anal on driving records as well, their website also says they dont insure ppl that have lost their licenses in the last 5yrs
actually i thought the wordin of it was quite offensive lol, read it and i was like... well fine, and gave my computer the finger out of spite lol

Yeah, I lost my licence about 3 year ago ... Only thing that I had been fined for in the last 5 or so years leading up to it ... Didn't read that blurb on their website, and called them.. They were quite rude to me when I told them the story ..

Ah, that is pretty crap

Glad I've never lost a point though

*Runs and hides

i lost three on my reds bollocks
