When I had to make a claim with my previous car (Write off) the RACV were very good, they handled the whole situation and got my cheque for the value of the written off car within a few days

The 2 dailys are with AAMI never had a claim with lumley, but had a hail damage repair done with AAMI and recieved excellent service chose my own repairer after some minor negotiations.

My daily drivers are with Suncorp in Brisbane & have been since 2005.

My GT's are with Shannons.

I'm almost 40 & live in rural Victoria so that helps with cheaper premiums etc etc.

nrma insures me, but i struggled to find some1 that would insure me because of my age and driving an "FPV".. would of been alot easier if it was just an xr8.
anyways nrma gave me the best price compared to everyone else
