BACKPACKER CAR INSURANCE
Coming to Australia and planning to buy a vehicle? We highly recommend you to take out third party compulsory insurance (TPPI) for a trouble free holiday around Australia…Third Party Property Insurance covers you against liability for damage your car might cause to other people’s property, usually the other car in an accident. It is strongly recommended that you take Third Party Property Insurance when you buy a car.
For third party compulsory insurance Travellers Autobarn highly recommends Travellers Car Insurance – TCI offers insurance tailor made for overseas drivers. You are allowed up to five drivers, are covered for $5,000,000 (yes, that’s five million dollars!) damage, and for drivers of the age of 19 years and upwards.
To check out prices & excess levels we recommend the following:
Check out Travellers Car Insurance – you can get online quotes and purchase third party property insurances directly online.
Visit any of the Travellers Autobarn branches – should you decide to also purchase a vehicle from Travellers Autobarn you will be offered a discounted rate for your third party property insurance

COMPULSORY INSURANCE (CTP)
The minimum insurance required by law is included under the registration of all vehicles in Australia. This is the Complsory Third Party Personal Injury (CTP Greenslip) insurance. Vehicles cannot be registered without this certificate, so every car with a current registration sticker has this insurance
CTP insurance covers everyone involved in a motor vehicle accident, except the driver who caused the accident, for medical and disability costs that result from the accident. We at Travellers Autobarn strongly suggest that everyone travelling to Australia take out his or her own travel/health insurance.
THIRD PARTY PROPERTY INSURANCE
