Hi all in OZ, I'm looking at bringing my F355 back to OZ with me after a 5 year stint in Hong Kong. At the moment I'm trying to find an insurer in OZ that will insure a personal import and am hittting a brick wall. Does anyone know of an insurer that will fully insure my 96 355 in Australia after I import it? If I can't insure it in OZ I don't think it would be worth bringing back with me. Which is a shame as I've just had new cats, clutch, shocks, tyres and brakes fitted in the last year. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
Regular insurance companies run and hide at the word Ferrari. Try OAMPS - oamps.com.au or Shannons - shannons.com.au
No luck with OAMPS, will try Dawes. How hard is it to insure a Imported 355 in OZ?? If I can't insure it, I'll sell it up here and look at that 355 spyder in Lance Dixons. It looks like a good car, anyone know anything about it? Regards Jam.
Hi easier to sell it in HK & buy here, that way you dont get the compliance jerks going, has it got compliance plates, andrew
Already decided to do that. 355 value has decreased in Oz. I'll re-finance and get an OZ delivered 360. Thanks all for your help. Doing the numbers: HK 96 355 = 100kAUD (60000kms, needs paint) Tax = 43k AUD (LCT, GST and customs) Ship= 5k AUD Misc= 15k AUD (Tyres, mirrors, service, paint, seat belts) I've owned this car for three years and hate to sell it, done 30000kms and still love it. However I can buy almost the same in OZ for not much more. Not worth the hassle. By the way moretti DAWES said they would insure it. Thanks. Jam.
