Kalel Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 So as few of you may already know I've gotten me a Toyota supra (n reg) tt 6spd (love her more every day). Two bad things in 1st few days of purchase: 1- Arggh! I touched the curb when doing a 3 point turn and the front bumper lip cracked!! Not major but visable... 2- Insurance really killed me, almost £3k. Nobody else covered me (Inc sky insurance & my old insurer) Getting tints all round on Tuesday £100 (the dude said "discounted price" but not sure) Booked for my Clifford avantguard & a tracker to be fitted on Thursday £825 (bare in mind it's legit & full kit.. Inc autostart ) need some alloys as my stock ones look abit.... Too stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite let down about sky, assumed they'd be the one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 jspec trd rz.... Was quoted 1,300 on a Nissan 300zx tt... I assumed the supra tt would be same... Unfortunately not. Btw also need some glass headlights bur damn I saw £800 a pair..!? TRD RZ? What does that mean? The Nissans are worth pretty much bugger all these days so insurance will be cheaper on those simply due to the low value. Glass headlights are about £150 each from Toyota. BTW, it does sound like a lot of insurance to pay, even given your age and low no claims. Do you live in a bad postcode area (that's not to say where you live is bad, but some seemingly nice areas get bad ratings due to claims per household). Google it to see how you compare. Sky are geared towards the "majority" of club members which are late twenties onwards, PLUS live in a non-blacklisted postcode. It's one reason why they can quote most of us in that bracket decent rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Sky are geared towards the "majority" of club members which are late twenties onwards. And members which are south of the border! They wont touch us northeners Adrian flux quoted me 1600 with 2 years no claims at 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalel Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 Someones having your pants down there fella. Seriously mate, I know I've beenbent over with no lube... But pretty choiceless. Paid 1200 deposit with spacing of 280ish a month... Ouch. I'd love to pay less but not able, hopefully next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wont touch us northeners Adrian flux quoted me 1600 with 2 years no claims at 23 Tell your fellow northerns to stop nicking/crashing cars then It's all about statistical risk analysis, nothing more than that. More claims in your area = higher insurance. I'm the same here living in a "bad" area compared to the rest of the county, so have to pay more because of that. The cars an rz... And has trd logo... Lol So it's an RZ then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalel Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 lol rz then!! Been told "when you hit 25 insurance will drop alot"... That's two years............ I'm not looking forward to pay almost 3k year one and 2.5k year 2!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
