[itr_112]

ey guys,
i wanted to get a dc2r, im 18 and ive called up insurance companies to get quotes....
aami - no insurance
racv- nominated driver 3400
just cars- 4000
gio- no insurance
shannons - no insurance
and yeh... thats about it for now so u know of any other insurance companies that are cheaper than this...

whack it under you parents name or wait a bit

have you tried going thru a broker?

or if you are game, try going to a honda dealer and using their easycover insurance (underwritten by swann)

currently i am looking at insurance myself, try http://motorinsurance.com.au/car.html, they had the cheapest quote for me so far

good luck

most companies allow pay by the month
there is a small fee and if you do the sums, it works out slightly more expensive than if you pay in one hit

my dc2r is insured under parents name too...rating one for life 680 dollars ayear full comp.

oh btw it is illegal to drive a type R on your P plates in Melbourne. Considering you are in melbourne. Just something for u to think about and take the risk doin. I have a few friends hat have been done for power to weight ratio in melbourne.

man spermzy you lucky insured under parents sigh =(.. i goto fork out 1.4g a year for my vtir full comp . but im rating 2 ^_^ sweet. btw not 25 yet almost though and word of warning people about been nominated as secondary driver. if you are planning to get your mum of dad to nominate you as secondary driver dont bother. you might as well insure it under your name because why the minute they know the secondary driver is under 25 the premium rockets up. you would pay the same price as if you were insuring it under your own name as it would be if you insured it under your parents name and put you as a secondary driver.

since your 18 i dont know if many insurance companies will let you insure it . but im betting for those that let you insure it under your parents and you for secondary will most likely let you insure it under your own name too. it will cost about the same. and you get to start working on bringing your rating up. you might start off as a rating 6 or somthing but over the years as you drive more and dont get into accidents you will pull your own rating up. so maybee get rating 1 or so when you are 25.

but u can also insure it under your parents name but dont mention your secondary =P. cheaper insurance =P. *COUGH COUGH*

I am with RAA in Adelaide (same as NRMA and RACV) at 22 I have Rating1 full comp and I pay $790.00 for my typeR

if you're 18 the only thing I could suggest is get it in your parents name and you as a nominated driver, I dont think you'll have much luck getting it in your own name.

Just Car would be your best bet. Get it under your parents name with you as second driver and the good thing is that just car allows mods, so if do have an accident your still covered.

i should be getting my vtir on friday, i am paying $3129 with justcar. no one else would insure me apart from racv, for $4200 or something....

remember with justcar u can have unlimited mods, as long as they are LEGAL, so make sure that everything on ure car is legal if u are going to mod...this is the hard bit

Plus itr_112, as the itr is an over powered vehicle in Victoria, which means in victoria you probably wont be covered no matter what if u are on ure P's as there is always a clause in insurance policies that says insurance will not cover you if you are not licenced to drive the car. (ie, its an OPV so u are not legally licenced to drive it)
