A-Plan
Endsleigh (well he is young and they should be used to it)

Then it's back to the yellow pages to find adverts for "young driver insurance" I guess.

OP - I think the thing to learn from this, is when all the other insurers are quoting on night on £2k and one quotes you on £1k then alarm bells should ring. You should think "hang on, must have something wrong here, I best make sure that that really is the quote". Double check ALL details and ask them to post out a full quote so you have evidence of a correct quote.

They are great and will be very good on price.

When did insurance get so bloody hard to take out?

When insurance companies realised thay young male drivers were a liability and costing them money

I know no excuse is good enough but its hardly surprising some people run with no insurance.

My Elise was £1300 to insure when I was 22 (with Elephant). Has insurance really gone up that much in five years?

Yes. I got my Jag at 20. Insurance was £1,700 TPFT. I tried to get a quote for the same thing, with the same details (i.e. 20 yo male, same address etc), recently, and it was £3,200.

+1 for APlan, you have fallen into the young driver trap of buying a small car that lots of other young drivers have therefore it is a higher risk fr the Ins Co because of that. If you can get your deposit back and get something that no self respecting yoof/boy racer would touch with a bargepole you would probably get the same price for double the amount of car.

Could try an Audi A4, they aren't crashed by young males that much.

My mate got a 1.8 insured with Adrian Flux for £1400 at the age of 19 with 0ncb.

Of course, I'm sure there are many other cars you could pick.

Add you mum to the insurance with admiral - knocked £600 off of mine. No idea why.
