Thought id join up as a member here as I have just purchased my first car which is an 08 liberty GT wagon tuned by STI today. Havnt actually got it sitting in my drive way as of yet but hopefully will get to pick it up on Tuesday. My mate pointed me in the direction of these forums as he also owns a GT Spec B '07 sedan and said I could find some useful information on here. Im from WA so would be interested in tagging along on any cruises that might be held in the near future and getting to meet some of you other liberty owners?

Cant wait to go pick up my car next week and finally take it for a proper spin. I havn't taken any photos of it yet but ill upload some once i receive it

Firstly, Welcome mate! Secondly. Hold up...when you say first car....do you mean first car? That is a pretty hot (and expensive) ride for a first car

Yup first car been saving for a while tho, the dealer today couldn't believe it either Good things come to those who wait i suppose

Ouch how much is your insurance going to be considering its your first car?

RAC quoted about $840pa full comprehensive

Wow that is very cheap I would of thought being your first car, have you been named drivers of other policies?

Yer for about 5 years now so the insurance isnt so bad....stamp duty on the other hand is $2000+

Welcome mate. Very nice car you purchased, best of luck with it!

that is massively cheap, did you offset that with a big excess or something?

Im going to go with AAMI as they quoted $846 which includes no claim bonus protection.

RAC charge an extra $100 for this.

Excess for AAMI is either $300 or $400 cant remember.

wow im paying nearly double that for a 06 3RB and thats the cheapest i got by far

Yer dunno, i guess it depends on the area you keep the car, your previous driving history and if you still owe money on the car.

Also i havnt modded it yet...hmm wonder what i should do first?

Depends a lot on how old you are too.

just because its his first car doesnt mean he is a p plater, or teenager.

Hoff, im paying about the $800 mark for my car through AAMI, not offset by larger premiums, and we have nearly the same car. Im only 24, and was paying the same amount for my previous 2.5 litre turbo car, (non lib)

Welcome to the forum tho mate. Nice purchase, especially as a first car.
Be sure to post up some pics.

Cheers matt,

Yer like u said im not a p plater, im 23 and have driven a few other cars for a while just never owned one myself.

And yup will deff post up some picks once i pick it up on tuesday
