For everyone who says "insurance is so expensive" , it's all relative .... my first pay was $27.00 a week , but I still insured my car 3rd party (many years ago , yep I'm an old phart). If insurance has "outstripped" wage rises , it's because people don't insure...
I'm on a pension now with 3 kids , paying off a house , $50+ a week for medication & still insure my cars (1, Comp. 1, 3rd party) and believe me a pension is an existance only.

If you want a car , adjust your living expenses . You can pay for fuel , why not insurance , even 3rd party.

"When not If" you write-off somebody's $30k car, even at $500 a year insurance it will save you up to 60 years . (60 yrs x $500 = $30k)
