106 insurance

[marc novataken]

i know its the wrong car but wondering if anyone can help? my brother has just passed his driving test, hes 17 and has a peugeot 106 with alloys, backbox and dtm mirrors. the insurance quotes hes getting are ranging from £2500 to £7000! tried all comparison sites and rang a few, brentacre, hic etc, wondering if anyone can recommend anybody

what size engine is it?

lad at work is 18 and his is £1500 tpft for a 106 quicksilver

[marc novataken]

1.1 s1 106

[adam c]

you tried quinn direct?they seem pretty good for young drivers

[marc novataken]

theyre his cheapest quote, £2545. just surely mustbe able to get cheaper than that somewhere. gonna try flux inn the morning

you will be supprised on the prices now mate.

i know someone with a 1988 fiat uno 998cc just past and there cheapest was 2300

Fcuk me, my first car was an '88 Uno. Only 903cc though (oh how I desired for the 998cc Fire model, although knowing Fiat, "fire" was probably a descriptor not a model name lol)

Paid £600 F/C, 17 with 0NCB lol

Anyways. Ditch the mods and insure it as standard. Try adding a parent as a second driver. And don't bother with gayhat comparison websites, they're usually the ones who come up with daft £4k quotes.

will it make any difference if he waits until his 18th birthday next month? seen a few companies wont even quote for 17 year olds!
