Victorian Hybrids And EVs To Get $100 Rego Rebate; Opposition Calls Hybrid Camry A "Flop"

I love your setup! Are you using 2-volt batteries wired in series? How many amp-hours per battery? do you have a 48-volt system?

I read this article which contained : "Mr Brumby hailed the previous $50 rebate as the motivation behind thousands of hybrids being registered in Victoria." Seriously? Would anyone in their right mind say that $50 would alter your approach to personal transport. Even the most basic of propaganda should at least make a modicum of sense.

Not my point electricdave - we should be welcomed with open arms not armour covered ready to battle. Still ... i do love driving into service stations to use their toilets and buy a coke.
Yeah well I got a discussion with a police officer for doing that. He figured a tesla at a servo must be suspicious.
Guess he had a point.

Ive asked this question before but its probably more appropriate in this thread.
What if anything have we discovered about insurance gap? As a result of a very near miss recently Ive been back to clarify the term new for old with AAMI on the first 2 years of my policy. When we got right down to the fine print it turns our its new for old up to but NOT past $150K.
Direct replacement price for my car at the current price/exchange rate is $206500 so I am searching for Insurance that is truly New for Old. Happy to pay the increased premium given the value of whats being covered. I would assume that everyone with super cars al la $150K plus must face this same problem.? I am asking myself whether or not I have missed something obvious?( Apart from Insurance companies being a little less than helpful)

We've been getting Insurance quotes prior to arrival of MS and only found 3 companies who would provide full cover for our $174k purchase;
RACV @ $2470 and Insurance House (our broker using CGU) @ $2404, and GIO at $4,073.00pa.
The CGU quote includes:
* Protection of your Rating One
* Choice of repairer
* Brand new car of similar make and model if your car is a write off in the first 3 years and has travelled less than 70,000 km.
* Lifetime guarantee of repairs
* One Windscreen/Glass claim per year with no excess applicable
* Agreed value of $174,000
We're thinking of going with the CGU policy, and have till late June to decide.
