I'm not sure - did you try looking in the insurance section? Also, that's where this thread needs to go... mods?

i think they do...from memory i had a quote a while back and it was like $6k premium...

They do, depending on age and driving experience. If you are under 25 though, forget about it. Go to Just car, or one of those other specialist insurers.

Doesnt seem to matter if you're over 25 - NRMA were hugely expensive for me compared to others!!!!!

Thats probably why most people with fto's dont go to nrma, and prefer specialist insurers. NRMA is a rip off.

Here's why I didnt go NRMA (I am over 25 btw- no accidents or anything)

NRMA Quote $4500
Shannons $1700 (they were surprised I thought they were expensive)
Famous $1400
Dawes $900

I'll leave it up to you to guess who I went with

my quotes were (over 30, no accidents):

1.nrma $4500 / $6000 (cant remember)
2.just car $2700
3.shannon (we only insure the very car enthusiast...blah...blah...i dont think u fall in the category)
4.famous $1150

which is the rite choice....

Mine with just car cost $1700...although its not under my name, since i am 17 yrs old and was quoted $4700 for comp cover by just car, and nrma refused to cover !

hey guys i am 18 and it cost me 1800 with just car that is full comp so i am guessing that is good

I got a price from Dawes last year to cover $20'000 on the car
for $1040 for the year

NRMA was $3'500 aprox for the year

so I would go with Dawes one of the best I have seen so far

and a big thanks to Teania for telling me about them

My full comp with just car this year would be $8500. How do they justify that when the car is insurered for 12 grand ?

Im getting a quote with Dawes now to see how much i could be saving. If its any cheaper than Just Car, Im definetely changing ! Ihad never heard of Dawes before this thread !

Teania · Post by **Teania** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 9:34 am

I think with Dawes you need to be over 25...... ??? I cant remember - 25 was quite a while ago for me now

www.dawes.com.au they have an online quote request form

harry90 · Post by **harry90** » Fri Feb 01, 2008 9:50 am

Yea i just did the online request thing...soo stupid...i used my dads name (he is over 50) and didnt list myself as a driver, and the reply was "sorry, cannot help. regards"...
