Hey all,

I have just recently been given a MX5/Eunos as a birthday present - Now, I am close to doing my driving test (Will be 20 when it happens) but looking at the insurance on the car it is insanely high (Although I am insured as a provisional and it is crazy cheap although that is expected).

Now, what I am wondering is what should I be looking at realistically to insure it? I would love to keep the car but if it is too high I won't really be able to do it. Is there any really good insurers out there who would insure me at a good price? I know I am statistically in the group of higher chance of crashing/bigger claim so know it won't be super cheap. Any help? Cheers smile

Well im 20 but with nearly 3 years driving experience and im paying £900-1000 with Elephant (forgotten the exact figure).

That's on a UK spec 1.8 so im guessing a Eunos with no prior experience will be substantially higher...
Yeah, it seems it is sadly. I do have a number I would be happy to pay but some quotes I am getting back is insane.
