yes - shop around. They are all generally different based on the vehicle. And its amazing how much they can vary...

Yes something similar happened to me many years ago - one quoted 4k then the other less than half that for the same vehicle...

ahh ok, hmm 900 dollars is a bit sus. ive got a terios 99 model and have put the insurance in my mum and my name and im 23 and we pay $1600 however im with allianz which is one of the best insurance companies. If u want a balance of a good insurance company and bill i doubt u will get it under $1500 a year unless u increase ur premium or lower the market value of the car which isnt worth the risk

I bought a skyline recently and Just Car Insurance was the only company that wanted anything to do with it. :(

nrma do it b4 they increase prices

um doggie d jst shop arnd. think of the insurance as a pair of heels, find the best one at the most competitive price. the big 3 should all be competitive and allianz/suncorp could be worth a try. very easy to get quotes online from all. jst play arnd with the options.

dnt go thru a broker most get commissions from selling 2-3 specific insurers products.

hmm go to nrma with the cheapest and they should match or beat it.

allianz is one of the biggest insurers in the world and they haven't had to worry abt their bottom line being burned by the storms and other things like IAG, Suncorp and GIO have, all 3 will raise premiums soon for sure.
