So if anyone has any good sites to use for the cheapest then it would be very helpful.

Thanks

Drive parents vehicle. Problem solved.

No it's not. When you put your parents as a named driver, they ask how often they will be driving it. You put "occasionally" or whatever is the less option. For you, you put the most. They can't track who's driving it the most and when, as long as there aren't any restrictions on time, i.e, the 2nd driver (you) can't driver between 11pm and 5am because if you do crash, then you're screwed.

There are lots of ways to bring it down. Having a tracker so you can only drive within certain times. Having a box that records everything you do. Speeding makes your price go up. Sticking to the limit makes it go down. Driving in peak times go up, non peak times goes down. That's if you want shit like that, which I personally don't.

Also the car doesn't do shit any more. I've tried cars ranging for 1997 to 2003. All different makes and models. Both same price as each other. Obviously the 2003 would be my pick.

I'm 19 and trying to find cheap insurance. I live in a town centre postcode, so it's high. The cheapest I have got is £3800 third party fire and theft. Wait a month till I'm 20 and it comes down to 3300 with pass plus. The most common price for fully comp is £8000. Some at £5-6000. Aviva are cheapest fully comp at £4400. Still way too much. I might just get a new bicycle, or become a girl.

a mate of mine did loads of comparing then just rang round the companys individually and after loads of little tweaks he pays £900 a year at 17 which is REALLY good

also, increase the voluntary excess can give you cheaper insurance monthly but then if you do crash you have to dig deeper for the excess

Who is he with? I'd be interested to know what he did to get it that low. I'd be happy with anything around 2 grand fully comp on my own, of course.

i think he is 3rd party fire and theft which plays a big part, im not sure who he is with but i do need to ask him as it wont be long until i need to buy one too, his dad is a named driver on his policy too so he will get all his NCB etc. no problem

but when i do find out i will post here
