new & young drivers (help)

[marsh_man]

well I am 17 next week and almost got my car paid for :)

but I was wondering a good insurance company for young and new drivers.

I was quoted ?500 by Its4Me and that was the best so far!

Any others?

Cheers.

[Ricks]

ur only doin third party i take it. id try norwich union direct

and i rang its4me the other day and they said they didnt insure under 21's silly **** dont know what theyre talking about

[marsh_man]

thats very strange.

i asked for a quote with my mum as first driver and they quoted me with no worries.

i just want to look around a little bit before choosing.

I will try Norwhich Union tomorrow as:

"Sorry the on-line quotation system is only available between the hours of 06:00 - 01:00 Mon to Sat and 06:00 - 12pm Sun."

[Ricks]

[Ricks]

500 is very cheap if its in your own name go with it and good luck

[Stuart]

hmmm fronting, lovely lol

[Jack]

Elephant/Admiral are good, not sure what they're like for young drivers though.

Try CIS and Tesco. Both have online quote systems.

[NovaloadedAgain]

Yep, have to agree....Tesco's are good for young drivers but what he means is ?500 under his mums name, Otherwise I think most of the UK would be with them.

Well... saves having to type it myself :lol:

[marsh_man]

not bein funny atall mate but your havin a laugh, ?700 at 17 is an excellent price if it is in your name

as said above havin it in your mums name is not really the best way to go

I'd say even in your mum's name thats not too bad!

that's funny, as that qoute will hold no water next time you ring.

You can't get a qoute for someone elses insurance. most companies will refuse to talk to you if your ringing up to insure a car in your sons/ someone elses name. it's just not legal.

I pay about ?450 on my mums insurance, TPFT which is good. but my mum does have very very cheap insurance on her cars.

[Nobby]

fuk me marsh man im on my moms name on a 1.2i with no mods declared as i have none lol and its still ?1400

[Nobby]

m8 i dno how u gt ?500 as ur mum got 25 years no claims or wat they jus quoted me ?1400 again!! lol

[Jack]

Maybe they know its because you're fronting lol

[NovaloadedAgain]

Lol ?1400! Your bending over the insurance compant table abit there int ya! Lol

Even if you had 11 points & under your mums name it wouldnt be that much! Try Tesco or Adrian Flux!

[NovaloadedAgain]

In fact even if you & your mum had 6 points each it probably wouldnt be that much! Who you with??

[NOVA_JONO]

I've heard ASDA insurance are fairly cheap for young drivers mate.

Jono.

[mad-driver]

From my experience first time drivers, males more so, should go with Norwhich Union, Mine is a respectable ?900 FC on my 1400 SR, and when i do the same quote now (nearly 8 months on) it comes out about ?700 so im hoping it will come down when my renewal is due

[NoVa_BaD_BoI]

ive got 1400 with endsliegh insurence in my own name on tp on a 1.2 and ive declerd it has been lowerd

[Mushy]

Cheapest ive ever been quoted so far for my 1200 merit was 1300 :?

Im sure there is cheaper

[gary17]

hi i am a new poster and the cheepest i got quoted was 1600 fully comp and 1500 third party that my on name and it was a 1.0 merit

[mad-driver]

i think you need to look around a bit more mate coz thats robbery

[ads w]

:o how you get 500! im paying 1800 atm and its4me just quoted me 4k! :cry:

[General Baxter]

im 19, 0ncb, i live in the slums,
?777.77 all mods done! fully comp

or ?3200TPFP when i pop the other engine in :roll:

[smithy-cg]

Cheapest ive ever been quoted so far for my 1200 merit was 1300 :?

Im sure there is cheaper

mine on me 1.2 merit is ?1.300 on a provisional, an on me own insurance

[Martin]

on my own with a 1.2i & 3 points its ?1300, try'd it with all the mods i was planning and it came to 1900, i'm 17 btw, mods include, lowering, speedlines, gsi kit, tinted windows, exhaust and a full respray in a metal flake paint....


Is that too much?




Martin,

[Jack]

Sounds about right to me, maybe a little on the high side. Assuming thats in your name?

[Will]

when i was 18 i paid ?770 on a modifed 1.2 nova sting (wheels, zorst, filter, lowered etc)

but then again this was with pass plus and back in the good old days of 2001/2002

Waits for Ste to post of him paying ?700 at 17 on a GTE back in 1988

pmsl

[Martin]

yep Razor thats on my own, and with the 3 points i got for speeding on my mop ped lmao
