Hi All

Buying first vehicle - ford focus 2 litre / 2007 - sedan

Been quoted 458.00 dollars for the year with allianz - is this competitive ?

Hmmmm.....tips appreciated please...

I dont actually live there yet but I got qouted on a diesel pajero 2007 model in February for $450 fully comp. They said if I bring a letter from a reputable UK insurance company with my no claims on they will honor it. So I think $458 seems a tad high for a Focus, but still not that bad I suppose.

Surely depends on your age, location and driving history? I'm paying over $1,000 dollars so you can't really compare unless you know the specifics.

Try the website for 'Budget Direct' if you want the cheapest (although obviously not the best extras etc)

Sounds about right, I'm paying similar on a 2.0l Hyundai Tucson.

I found NRMA much more competitive than Allianz by about $100 per year.

We drive a 2008 Toyota Kluger and the annual premium (with 5 years no claim bonus) was $678 for comprehensive insurance.

My Honda CR-V (2004) is just up for renewal: last year's premium was $609 comprehensive FWIW.

Anyone else find it strange that they don't send any kind of receipt, or cover note when you pay online? I query it every year and they say "yes, you're paid up" - but apart from my credit card statement I have no confirmation.

But don't forget, like everything in life you get what you pay for.

Obviously i,m going to use my "noggin" and ring round. I thought this forum HELPED people though

I wonder why Mythbusters haven't done that one?

What insurance are we talking about sorry ?
Comprehensive or third party ?

www.realinsurance.com.au

Again depends on age,location and car.......

Im paying $700 on a subaru WRX, thats fully comp with a $400 excess and protected no claims! Thats with allianz! It would be a least that in pounds in the uk. They also wernt botherd about seeing my full no claims from the uk, just took my word for it!

Seem like a good company to me?!

I have a brand new Mazda 2 and i pay $275 fully comp, my hubby drives on old Ford Falcon and it costs him $350 fully comp. They have honored our Protected no claims from the UK, as we were able to provide documents from our insurance.

Happy hunting..
