Hi I’m 18 years old and my first year of insurance is almost up , currently have a 1.4 seat Ibiza. Would like something with a bit more power to it but not so it makes my insurance stupid expensive. Any suggestions on what car I could get that is fairly quick, was maybe thinking abarth 595 however people will take the kick. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Stick with what you've got until you're 21 as by that point, you can pretty much insure anything which is worth upgrading to

as above stick with it till 21 and bank some NCB

then look at a warm hatch and bank even more NCB until 25

then buy a C63 AMG biggrin

+1 for all the advice above. Build up slowly, you have plenty of time.

All good advice.

But at 18 I just didn't have the patience for that! Mind you working for an insurance company helped my quest for more power no end. laugh

Maybe getting an insurance quote or two might help you decide.
