insurance!?

Post by twit »

hi im after what companies people are using for there modified e series i have lowered, rims, exhaust, cam, etc etc etc and i am preferrably after full comprehensive rather than resorting to just 3rd party insurance i looked at racv and looks like they cover mods but i might be missing some fine print wat does everyone recomend im with aami and they only cover 2 mods which is fckin useless so wat does everyone else use????

im with racv for the eb....
they said mods are ok aslong i dont touch the chassis. and it would pass a rwc.
only reason why im with them is cgu wouldnt touch me after the manual conversion lol

the xf is still with cgu... mainly cos i cbf'd changing it over.. will prolly do it at the renewal time..

that doesnt sound too bad for comprehensive

i cant remember what the figure was for the eb was. for comprehensive when i got quoted with the mods..
i'll see if i can find the form for it.

A lot of companies say they will cover mods on your car but if you have an accident they will void your insurance for illegal mods. This happened to a mate that was with Just Car.

Shannons is good but you will struggle to get insurance with them at your age.

When I was younger I was with a company that was called Young And Cool at the time but I think its something different now. Look them up. They were really cheap and covered all mods to the car.

Im with RACV and have full comp which cost me $1,100 a year unlimited mods (as long as they are legal).
And yes I have told them all of the mods, no point in risking not telling them
