Still waiting on the ballast, latest from DHL yesterday was "In transit to destination country"
Car isn't plated or registered yet so we've been shopping around for insurance. I looked quickly before we bought the car & it was looking like it would be around $2800/yr, got a quote today from RBC $1560/yr
Is he allowed to drive it?
That seems crazy low. Awesome.
Not yet... it's not registered or insured, once we get the ballast & fix the headlight, then we'll insure & register it and get him a 10 day trip permit so we can take it to the mechanic to get the safety done, summer tires installed, etc... AND, surprisingly he's been patient about the whole thing & understanding. He's such a mellow kid & doesn't show much emotion... kinda scary
Yeah, I thought so as well, so I called & got a formal quote from them & it was same as the online one. Mind you it's only comprehensive, so no collision on the car, or theft. It's a $2k car, that coverage would cost him another $1k per year, 50% of the value of the car. He can have this cheap coverage until he gets a vehicle that deserves full coverage
