21 single and need insurance

[Brett]

At the end of the day the 2.6/2.4 thing is not whats making the difference, its the fact you are insuring a 150mph balls to the wall type of car!  Best quote I had when I was 21 was £760 with 4 years NCB and 4 years with a Full liscence, given the fact that I hate large inurance bills I went for an FC3S in the end.  Age is the limiting factor I\'m afraid, you are lucky to be getting quotes at all really

 Insurance, aint it great?

Have a look through the other threads on here, there are loads of numbers to try.

This one seems to be giving good quotes:

You might want to try Lifesure (http://www.lifesure.co.uk/motor.php) they were very helpful and knowledgable for me. Ring them rather than fill the form in, much easier.

Not sure what age limits both apply though, many are 25 or 30 + before insuring.


I seem to remember when I got my first FD, I wasinsured through Adiran Flux. Policy came through with Royal Sun Alliance, and said 2354 on the certificate. I called up, complained and said it was wrong, and the insurance company issued a new cert with 2616 on it. I did that for 2 years, so if something did happen there was no get out for them. Interesting thing is, I rang RSA directly on renewal, and they declared that they didn\'t insure cars in these higher insurance brackets!

Thing is, you take a gamble - you sign off the forms declaring all info is correct. So if you insure the FD as a 2354, you are in effect uninsured. It may sting you in the wallet but at least you\'ll be properly covered. But then £2k for a car thats worth 5 or 6k? Its alot, isn\'t it!

Yep they quoted wrong, they did it on a 2.6 but only one turbo, i was gutted.
Ive just took insurance out with A quote 1137 fully comp, im not going to get cheaper than that. Makes you wonder how they work because my wife rang them for a quote in the evening, came out at 2500, but they rang back the next morning offering 1137, i had to take that one as i pick the car up on friday.....

what company was that with ?

these are my results, thought it might be interesting for people my age when looking round, saves you ringing place that people keep suggesting but you end up finding out you need to be 25
looks like its time to get a 2nd job as im going to paying £2k for a years insurance
