This is pretty ridiculous now…

RACV were leading the way years ago, but they’ve just increased my insurance for a MY16 GTI MK7…

2022 Premium: $1278.96
2023 Premium: $1512.97

That’s an increase of $234 in one year! No performance modifications,...

I quoted up some 3yr extended warranty insuraces... 3yr Eric 5 star extended warranty insurance for $1511! nearest competitor is $2871.

My 2018 golf 110tsi only has 34509km and vw extended warranty runs out 30/08/23. Maybe its a mistake on Erics part as far as their backend is concerned,...

Hey -

My partner and I are likely moving over to Sydney for work in the next 12 months. We have both an Edition 30 and MkIV R32 which we might bring with us under a personal effects type import arrangement.

My understanding is that there are no ED30s in Australia - does anyone...

Hi, has anyone had experience with having a JB4 + making an insurance claim?

I am with AAMI and they say any legal modifications covered (no need to list) - so say if I was to get into an accident and had to make a claim, will the JB4 be possible cause of denial?

Thanks

hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone has recommendations for repairers in Melbourne! Car got backed into this morning and wanted to get someone who can do a great, not just some cheapy that the insurance company wants to deal out with!

It's just the front bumper and potentially...

Morning people,

Just wanted to share my recent experience after recent error code for EGR.

I have the twin turbo CFCA engine which i bought at 12K and now has 132K. No problems whatsoever thanks to a strict service schedule and some preventative maintenance along the way....

Question for you mod veterans out there,

What's the go with modifying the original major components of a car when it comes to (voiding) insurance policies?

Excluding consumables like brake pads, would changing a car's rotor's and brakes/coilovers pose the risk of voiding a...

My renewal has just arrived, agreed value has reduced [naturally] but without any claims for probably 10 years or more, the premium has jumped by 20%. This is with Apia who I think may not expect their customers to get another quote.
There was a thread here some time ago of another insurance...

Was enjoying a drive from Eden to Kiama this week when my windscreen was hit by what I thought was a small stone thrown up by the car in front of me. It was so innocuous - barely heard it and didn't see it coming. Totally surprised to see a 15cm crack appear on the lower left side. It grew another 2-3...

Hi all,

We are currently getting comprehensive insurance quotes for 132tsi with all options and have found the maximum agreed value offered by insurance companies is more than 10% less than the RRP (even with options selected on quote). I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed...

Ok I thought I'd throw this out there for all the MK4 owners, who have lost a loved one or who are perhaps going through something heavy at the moment. MK4's and written off vehicles....

As many of our MK4 get older it is important to know in Australia when a vehicle is over 15yrs old...

Aussie member here... and I'm always curious how the UK registration system works, when I read various threads on here.



Also a massive (original) Top Gear fan, and confused with their terminology also.



It seems your car registration and insurance...

Hey Guys,
my insurance with GIO is up for renewal and I'm looking to increase my agreed insurance value to more then the amount of $2,600 which is the most they can offer me.

I've tried Shannon's and they said they could easily do cover of $5k but the month repayments would be close...

Hi Guys,

total newb here.
A little about myself:
Im 25, studied science, working in fire investigation.
I learned to drive in a manual Nissan Pulsar or "the paddock basher" so tactfully named by my dad. it was my brothers old car.
I then inherited (again...

So the insurance is due on my cars, it's currently with Shannons but it's always worth looking around. Shannons are great for modified vehicles, less so for stock ones, although are generally competitive.

Any other recommendations?
