thanks guys..no luck yet. insurers advised they have a fourteen day grace period and we missed it. i wont mention who at this stage.
has a 'tonka' sticker on the back window too..
ive p;astered it on Facebook and can see ppl are sharing it so hopefully something will happen.
big bummer i have two disabled kids who luv camping..
Mate first off can i say that im sorry to hear of your bad luck and hope the cops can be of some help before you need to pursue your insurer.
As for the insurance i think you still have a good chance to make them pay as i have had a similar situation with NRMA and monthly payments, but can i say i had missed 10 payments due to thinking the car yard had included 12months worth of insurance BUT in reality all they had done is request my previous situation be continued.
Any way unbeknown to me i drove my brand new D22 for 10months with no insurance until i had an accident on the freeway causing a brand new commodore wagon to loose control and end up on its roof and was a total write off.
So i rang my insurance to explain the situation and was promptly told to PISS OFF as i was not insured and had NOT been for the last 10 months due to the first payment not going through and even though i had been insured with them for the last 8years they were not going to pay my claim.
Anyway i ended up going to the ombudsman and what do you know they come good and paid the 36k for the other car and all i had to do was pay my excess and the full year of payments as i wanted to do in the first place.
As i could show that my intention was to have the car insured they paid.
Mate send me a pm and i will give you my phone number so i can explain the full situation as there is a little more to the way i proved my intention to have the car insured as its a little too much to put here in this thread.
but trust me you can get them no matter what they tell you at this point in time.
best regards,
Nathan.
