Hey, i was wondering what the best insurence company for rates would be cause id really enjoy it to be legal for me to drive my car and i cant really afford 4g a year, or will i have to get used to it

16 years old, clean record
young drivers grad (if that even means anything)
89 240sx as primary driver

am i ****ed? please give me some sugestions of who to call. . .

Thanks,
Kyle

 

i have the same problem but i live in Edmonton AB. The lowest rate i got was 4854 / year. that was through an insurance broker and me phoning like 10 different companies.
THEN i found this one insurance company that classified a 240 as a Station wagon???? They quoted me 2800/year. Keep lookin and nnever give up cuz you will never know what u will find.

 

hahaha they thought it was a volvo 240 hahhaha

called 2 insurence companies got quoted 8000 at one and 4000 at the other. if only idiot companies could mix my car up with somthing else

 

Glad to see another Canadian fellow 240 lover. Cheers~

Well, I'm paying more than 4g a year for both of my car 'coz I didn't have any insurance records before. The only charge I was able to get rid of was the young driver. (Ok, I know I'm old. )

So, yeah, keep looking and good luck, bud.

Long time no see, RS13, you doing fine? Where did you dig out that 2800 rate? I need that badly, too...

 

man i need to find a rate cheaper than 3800, is temperary insurence an option?

 

im payin around 4 grand also but i store it for winters so im only getting ripped off halfway. the rates are ridiculous and if u get hit in a parking lot they cant do anything about it. my friend found that out the hard way

 

Drift-Obsession:
By temporary, you mean getting a regular insurance in 3- or 6-month term instead of annual? Or just by days or weeks? If the later, hell, they're ripping us off a BIG BIG time. Just keep calling up those insurance companies. Good luck, bud!

Soopafly_J:
Yeah. Coz they can't decide who's really right or wrong in a parking lot. Usually both parties will just end up being accused responsible on their own.

 

i thought when yuo goto the DMV to get a temp permit you can get gov insurence as well for a little more. though im not sure this is second hand info that i got

 

Not sure about Nova Scotia, but in BC it's like $30+/day if you get temp permit w/ gov insurance just for a few days. Since BC insurance rate is considered moderate across Canada, guess we're not really better off. Again, searching around helps.

 

Meloche Monnex $125/month but I'm 28 and drive an Altima.

 

Thanks a lot Coach, the rate sounds great.
It's in Edmonton, right? I'm gonna check on that after I get back.
I'm in Japan for the first time in my life, gotta check out some hot rigs & gals.

 

I'm in Toronto! Sorry.
