  @birdsfromspace,
  shop around the internet, i think mas mababa ang premium sa coles insurance, they have car and other types of insurance, try browsing sa webpage nila.
  even if u have an australian license, i think may excess payment na babayaran, depende ung amount sa insurer, starts from 500 up..un lng ang pagkaka alam ko...and if u have an AU license, y still use PHP license..may I ask what type of visa do u hold, kung PR ka na, u need to have that license after 3 months of stay...hope this help
  
  and are u planning of buying a 2nd hand car? i'm selling one of our vehicle, seldom being used at this time, 2008 toyota aurion ATX, +107K odometer reading...V6 3.5L bluish silver colour, good running condition, properly maintained,

  Hey guys salamat sa info. Ended up going with RACQ dahil sa roadside service nila.
  
  Still using a Philippine license cause I'm not comfortable taking the tests just yet. Pero actual driving dito ok lang haha

  Same question din ako. Mas ok ba kung i-avail din yung mga excess na tinatawag? Dko pa kasi maintindihan kung ano ung mga un. I thought, kapag kumuha ka ng comprehensive insurance, you're good to go na.

  Patanong lang, for brand new cars, talaga bang nasa $90 ang insurance per month? Me nabasa kase ako dito na $45 per month lang binabayaran nya. San kayang insurance company yun?
