    Shannons do great deals.. Especially if you bring more than one item to them to cover...

    And their service when you need it is excellent
    Yeah totally agree. Not always the best thing to have the cheapest insurance company cover your car.

    I have heard far too many stories of people getting cheap insurance but when they go to claim nothing but trouble.

    Just car offered me a really cheap rate when I first got here 7 years ago on my 90 but they valued it at $5000. Where as Shannon's valued my 90 at $18,000 for not a lot more money. But I have since heard horror stories about Just Car.

    But Shannon's is owned by Suncorp so have someone big behind them.

    If you are young like me ask APIA for a quote.
    IMO it is the best by far.

    I went through a company called TCIS underwriting, who broker specialist and enthusiast insurance. For just under $1000- they valued the D2 (2000MY) at $15,000 and added another $10,000 for accessories at full retail value. Covered on road and off, recovery back to home, first option on buy back on wreck if written off (until 15yo) then salvage rights on wreck.

    Compared to the last insurance with AAMI was $1100- and valued at $12000- including accessories.

    Cheers guys, have to wait a week while my license gets transferred to an Aussie one, getting a quote with an international is very expensive but even when I say I have an Aussie one not found anything below $1200! Will keep trying with the tips on here...

    Just as a matter of interest, just car is fully underwritten by aami which is also owned by suncorp. There is only a very few big companies with many irons in the fire when it comes to auto insurance.
