I too have just had the jack up for insurance renewal & have shopped around after an increase from last year of $160 with AAMI. NRMA were only $10 cheaper. After reading post 7788 I too found CGU a far better option by $220. And this company is an IAG company as is NRMA?
Thanks to the
forum.
Cheers

Jackblue, I have also had some good prices from CGU and their claims are settled promptly.

Windscreen cover is $200 excess extra, they only cost $250 didn't see the point. Just had
mine replaced after a stone found its way into it just before
Rainbow beach before Fraser trip.

I did a fair bit of research a while back, and there were a few limitations on what was covered and what wasn't - one interpretation for off-road was 'reasonable use of the vehicle' - when I asked if that covered something such as a
river crossing there was a long silence at the end of the phone.
I am with SmartCover which is a legacy from when I was in the Army, but they too are underwritten by CGU - their only limitation, 'so long as you are legally allowed to be there' - ie,
Stockton Beach,
river crossing in National Park etc etc

AAMI...
Heard a few nightmare stories with them.
Id rather pay a little more and be "COVERED" when I need it, not shafted around.. Not that insurance companies like to do that.
Where you are legally allowed to be.. One of those lines insurance companies can use to THEIR advantage whenever they like.
Now driving along and you go thru a fence you didnt know was there, which happens in the bush. You are now on Private Property... Are you allowed to be there? Are you Covered?

I have everything insured through CGU - two cars, house & contents, and they are the cheapest by a country mile, they also let you pay by the month at no extra charge, which makes it a little easier on the hip pocket, especially when you have a family to feed.
