think this thread died years ago...sad anyone have recent info ...looking to insure a 92 gts4 in sudbury ontario without going the facitlity way but I will I have to I guess

[Xeno-Vibe]

Yes, this thread is no longer accurate. There are newer threads about it, basically your options are very limited and if you do find someone willing to insure you'll be paying out the ass.

I have my GT-R insured with Lant, but it isn't my daily and I have two other vehicles insured with another company. Hopefully that will point someone else in the right direction.

For people currently insured, what was your GTR (r32 or r33) appraised at prior to getting insured?!? Purchase price is one thing but they said they'll need to do an official appraisal to determine the value, this will affect my rate.

[ruckusx2]

you would need to get a apprsisal guy that knows about nissans and get him to do an appraisal on your car then give that info to the ins co. then you should b fine.

Higher appraisal value would equal a higher rate from what i've been told. So if i nudged the appraiser and told him this things not worth more than $6000, if damage ever exceeded that which is quite possible, I could take the "write-off" cheque and fix it myself?

I'm pretty sure if the insurance company writes it off, it's off the road for good. Don't quote me though.

Mattias is right , if the insurance writes it off they take the car , by paying you a cheque they effectively buy the wreck from you .

My GTR is insured for aorund $26,000 , if you want a good appraisal go visit Mike Kent at rightdfrive , he is a certified appraiser and will give your car a fair value.

The value of the car bears no relation to the policy cost, in Ontario the insurance company is basing price on liability or personal injury , the cars worth is small potatoes compared to a life changing injury and with Ontario's "no fault" insurance - it's YOUR insurance that payes your losses ( car , income , medical expenses ) .

Mine is around $1100 a year full collision - drive it when i want , where i want as long as i have another daily driver (which i do) . I lucked out with my company , as far as i know they are not excepting any more skylines but i am being grandfathered ( appropriately lol ).
