That's bullshit mate especially where you live I reckon the risk of theft or damage would be heaps higher in Perth than pemberton. Give them a call and talk to someone, I've found you can get a heaps better deal if you speak to someone rather than online. I've got house and contents and another car with them so maybe that helps get the price down.

Well I'm a happy camper, just swapped to RACV last month and only $628.60 for 12 months with $60,000 agreed value, $625 excess.
I'm rating 1 and do get a multi-policy discount and the claims I made in the last 12mths didn't effect my rating as it was with a different insurer.
Also covered Australia wide.

Sometimes it pays to be one of those old baby boomer pricks.

Original renewal was $127 per month (ouch), but by removing me as a listed driver as I usually only drive it once a fortnight (if that) ..... this reduced it to $98 !!!

Apparently 28yr old females seem to be 'high risk' for a 4x4 at almost $30 a month!

As AAMI still cover occasional drivers, they totally agreed that driving it less than once a fortnight I don't need to be listed.

So be careful if you really need to list partners/occasional drivers on there!

You have it backwards I'm sure most blokes would be happy to pay more for insurance if their wife was under 28

Guess my hubby wants best of both then ..... wife of 28 and cheaper insurance! :D

Yeah my wife is 28 so no cheap insurance for me either

I am with Allianz as well and no problems so far, but not had a claim either

I am now with Shannons.
All they ask is to prove you are a 'motoring enthusiast'.( I insured my other car with them as proof) Had a claim 2 weeks after joining, when Katrol slipped, no dramas at all. Agreed value and $550 excess.
Happy, happy.

I just swapped from suncorp to dodo and saved $130 off the yearly premium.
