TR Insurance in Perth/Aus

insurance would be the last thing i would look at.....get it here first, get it complied, then registered.....then worry about insurance

 

then ring shannons

 

There is no ball park figure. In Sydney it be 3x more then Perth. They look at your postcode 1st then fill in the blanks.

The best bet is giving Shannons/insert insurance company a call, they would give you the best ball park figure.

 

Good repeat business discounts from Shannons. I have 5 cars(1 in storage) with them, the last was just about free! My kids have their cars with them too, and some of the discount carried across.

 

I have about 7 cars insured and Shannon's were useless.

 

I've used Shannons for the last 2 years for Horse. The renewal was cheaper!

Previously Suncorp, Dawes and before that Suncorp - but it just kept going up every year and in the end Suncorp would not agree with my opinion that after 24 years, a car does not go down 10% every year!

I use NRMA for my work stuff, but I don't think they have any idea of classics, in my opinion.

 

I had to argue EVERY bloody year about increased premiums. Not only that, you had to go through 20 levels of management before you got the premium down to a reasonable level.
Never had the problem with Dawes. My only issue with them is agreed value on some of my cars.

 

It's a bit like "how long is a piece of string"; but if I had one and insured it for about $140k I would expect it to cost max $1000 with about a $2500 excess.

 

Interesting. My 348 is insured for $115K through Shannons for approx $1300 per year with a $500 excess. I am nearly 30 yrs old on a Rating 1 for life.

Testatrossas are "worth" more than my lowly 348 so I would assume they would cost more to insure?

Or am I dreaming?

Maybe a 'valued' customer with 7 cars would get a cheaper premium than me perhaps??

 

l wouldnt be complaing Pap..my 328 is insured for just shy of what your 348 is and I'm payng $2k per yr with $1000 excess...good record with two cars with them as well and no claims....thats what living in Sydney costs though...

 

My $340k daily driver Maserati Granturismo S is only $2400 or so. Sounds like a lot for a 328.

 

my 328 was less than $600pa.

 

I aint complaining, trust me.

Nice one.

I called those guys and they matched Shannons quote buy they wanted me to fit a car alarm and I said "bah" to that.

So Shannons it is.

 

there was no such requirement with my cars.

 

True eh.

 

He must live in St Marys or something.

 

I believe Suncorp owns Shannons, and Just Cars Insurance, among many others.

 

No, both underwriten by AAMI I think.

 

AAMI was part of Promina which merged with Suncorp-Metway afew years back so AAMI is now owned by Suncorp.

Since the merger Shannons is now underwritten by AAI which is also owned by Suncorp.
Just Cars is still underwritten by AAMI.

I'd hate to be the guy working all that out

 

That sounds reasonable Chris!

 

See they didn't bite

Just x2 for Sydney price haha

Glad you are happy, enjoy the Ferrari once it arrives and remember to post some pics
