Hi. I'm 17 and wanting to insure my car.
The cheapest I can get is £650 with quinn but then it goes up to £3200 when I pass which is ridiculas.
Is there anyway I can get it cheaper, do you know anyother companies that are cheap on proviosnal and only go up a little when passed?

My Dad won't let me go on his insurance as he has never had an accident in his 40 years of driving
Can I possibly go on his insurance with his no claims protected?
How does this work?

I'm relaly wanting to get on the road but it's holding me back so badly!

Cheers

simliar to me, no way my dad was ever letting me on his!
i went with direct line in the end! paid £1038 fully comp
and im 18

quinn seemed to give good quotes but as soon as i passed and looked for a quote they were higher then say a few months before! guess it depends on when the policy is taken out etc?

Was that on provisional fully comp or after you have passed? cheers

when you are quoting put one of your parents as named driver

Could you please explain that a bit more please?
Would they loose their no claims? Thanks Sam

No they wont loose their ncb. - if you are a named driver on a policy then you dont earn ncb on that policy

If they are a named driver on your policy it should bring it down because it means that someone who is more experienced driver will be using the car.

If both parents drive and clean license and a good few years NCB then it should bring it down.

I brought the cost of the policy down on Hs panda. Eventhough he has been driving longer than i have and has more NCB.....

It worth a try

Lube up and be prepared to pay 2kish if your going on your own.

pass plus should offer 10% discount. but it costs £100, so you might not save that much, but works out cheaper (and worth it tbh) as long as the original amount is at least £1000 though not all insurers accept it.

adrian flux.

when i was 17, confused.com was all 2.8k+ they done me at £1900 including fees for paying monthly.

that was on a 1998 sporting 16v punto with alloys, exhaust, tinted windows.

i would expect a 60s to be £1600ish, it would be for me anyway when i was 17.

you must phone them, and also say you are on a owners club (they will ask)

ecar insurance...

17, well was, now 18 but its the same policy.
951 quid, tpft
me on a full uk, girlfriend on a provisional.
pass plus done (i got it signed for free )
i got my quote on gocompare.com

i was driving a 1.2 brava and they chaged me nearly two grand pass plus did help saved me 500 quid tho but dont forget it will go down the years you have been driving and earning a ncb its been two years since iv first passed iv up graded to a 1.6 barva at lowerd my insurence to 1001.00

but it doesnt come cheap at first but comes cheaper later
drive easy dont drink and drive dont race there lotsof younger people who die each year becarefull

put your mum on as a named driver.... saved me near enough £500/600 on my 1st and 2nd car....

on the bravo it saved me only around £100ish.... but that is 2 tanks of fuel...

it might be a saving of more depending on circumstances... i put my dad on and it went up though so be careful!!

also do your pass plus £150 saved me about double that

Dont modify it! (too late it seems)

You are 17 and you done that to your car? Nice.

Anyway mate you know I am with Motaquote and paying £874 a year, I got it down from £2100 a year with eCar which was the cheapest before I went with Motaquote and had a tracker fitted.

Advise - stop modding your car, save the money to pay for your insurance!

Your a 17 year old boy, unless you were insane you knew when you first got a car that policies would be sky high, let alone after all your mods.

Like hes gonna declare them.
