who with? what was the end of that story?
how old are you guys? over 25? i understand its touchy questions but these are what the insurance co's ask. generally i'm just after an idea of what your car is (i can search your threads) and what its insured for.

If it's outside the guidelines of what they cover, then it's outside their guides
Pretty simple really.

13-10-11, 13:15 GMT+10#29 Dont forget your driving record comes into play when they are quoting the insurance premium, so if you have a history of speeding fines/ accidents and shiz it's going to add to the cost of it all, last time I got a quote for mine I had multiple fines on record and a couple of accidents, so that was shiz house

Cheers Dinch. at times like this i'm glad I have a build thread. detailed pictures and chronology of mods and how i treat the car. might get them to just look at that.

3 accidents in my 1st year of driving, 1 where i was at fault (low speed bumper to bumper,) 2 where i wasn't (taxi rear ended me in the wet, woman came through a stop sign at me.)
anyway they fall outside of teh 3 years history everyone wants and for the few that asked for 5 years history its borderline and i've forgotten the dates anyway without ringing my insurance company and asking for a breakdown of details so I haven't been putting it in for purpose f a quote.
also no speeding or demerits. a few defects and threats to tow my car but nothing with ground re the threats. just a man with a head too big for his blue cap.

14-10-11, 14:52 GMT+10#34 I don't know how you guys get insurance with agreed value so high.
With the amount I'd spent I was still only being offered around 10, and that was with me paying a fair bit extra.

14-10-11, 14:59 GMT+10#35 I agree with bax, how do you guys manage agreed value so high on a VL with premiums that seem pretty low? has anyone ever successfully made a claim for that amount? im highly doubting it but im curious to know...
Im with RACV Pay Around $900 or so/year with a $500 excess (i think off top of my head) for agreed value of 16k on a VY SS, over 25 but the car is insured for under 25 drivers also, no previous claims (rating 1), but one hell of a driving history that hasnt seemed to affect me to much insurance wise
Ive never had anything but third party/fire/theft on any of my VL's over the years, all the quotes i got were ridiculously stupid and it just wasnt worth it to me!

20-11-11, 17:44 GMT+10#36 bumping this **** up!
RACV would only insure my VLCT agreed value for $4000 with 20" wheels etc over 25, rating 1 etc, what a joke!!
Ringing around now but i dont know how some of you guys managed to get them insured for such ridiculous prices.

20-11-11, 19:51 GMT+10#37 Thing that peeved me about shannons was the fact they wouldn't insure my ute because it's in the mrs name, yet just cars do.

09-01-12, 07:29 GMT+10#40 Got shannons,
insured my vl for 13 k , have spent 4 x that, when i put the 26 in it it will go up to the high 20's ,
at the moment it's $48 a month, for 3 times a week drive track days and drags, it hasn't moved for 3 months :P
i'm 31 have bad driving history and loss of licence 6 months before insuring it, i'm happy with that.
