Just put a deposit on a 4x4 Vr 2008 ex demo

Postby 85HiluxSR5 on Sat Jun 27, 2009 4:13 pm

Hi all,
always been a hilux driver and never thought id drive anything else but took a drive in the triton last week and was pretty impressed so ended up buying one this morning...
pick up my vr next week so looking forward to talking mods with you all and hopfully a bash off road somewhere in vic...
up for trail bike riding aswell,

Quick question.. who do you guys insure your tritons with, ive been quoted $1400 by dga brokers i think its spelt for unlimited mods/offroading etc, car is 4x4 turbo diesel. is this steep for 26years old driver with rating 1 or about the going rate?

also in case your all wondering im on team BLACK!!! LOL :D

Take care and thanks for your help in advance
Cheers
Ben

Now I will resume that you have gone from a very early model hilux to the triton. Wow that must have been an eye opener. Welcome to the site and enjoy the new purchase ;) BTW welcome to " Team MIB " 8-) 8-)

Welcome 85,

Better stock up on the car wash, polish and chamois's as they are required items for Team MIB.

"Quick question.. who do you guys insure your tritons with, ive been quoted $1400 by dga brokers"

85, this is probably left to comments from of the younger members of this site........ I only pay $720 per year but then again I am a member of " The OFC ". But I would shop around. There is a thread concerning insurances on this site, do a search and might give more info. :D

welcome mate, some 15's will fit but you'd have to see if they will clear the brakes
