Thread: Insurance for L322 - any recommendations?

What is your rating and what year is the car? Mine falls closer to your best quote, and I'm with GIO. Standard excess is $400, plus another $400 for an un nominated driver.

Youi was the most expensive when we did this excersize as SWMBO drives it almost into the city every day.

I've got the top level no claim bonus, excess is only $350. It's a white 2012 Vogue TDV8 Luxury. Covered for new car replacement till the end of this year, then agreed value for another year. I only do about 10,000k a year, and most of that is country trips as I only live 1.5km from my office.

Wow, you've done better than me (via Alphera) - I will be going back and seeing if I can do better!!

Try APIA Chris, their underwriter is AAI. You get a whole bunch of extras too, you're covered for personal possessions in the car up to $1,000 per claim, towing home, accommodation etc if you're more than 150km from home etc etc.
I went through the wringer with a bunch of these companies today, some of them had ridiculous exclusions. Eg Allianz wouldn't cover it at all because it's got bigger-than-standard wheels/tyres on it. What th...? They're only 22s, I'm guessing hundreds of Rangies have 22s on them straight out of the showroom, particularly the new model Sports and L405s.

Go figure, I guess they really just didn't want the business.

Thanks Greg, will do; do you get choice of repairer with Apia? I recall that was a 'sales line' Allianz used - which TBH I never actually checked on (ie whether everyone else gives you that too) cheers

Yes I believe you do Chris although I'll check that when they send the policy, will let you know.....

Yeah I was a bit surprised at how cheap it was. I guess the proof is in the pudding, ie when the rubber hits the road at claim time. I'm always suspicious of 'cheap'. In most things, you get what you pay for.
