Insurance Issues :(
Hello all,
Just wondering which insurance companies are good ? I know this is an age old question, but basically ive been driving 2 years, my first was as a named driver, i would have got my first years no claims next month, but last month i smashed up my brothers car ( my fault ) and wrote off a 12 grand 5 week old MPV with it.
My insurance on a 1.6 Si went up, from 72.00 a month ( in my own name ) to 148.00 a month
Im trying to get insurance on other cars, ive been looking at 1.8/2.0 engined cars and no one will touch me, even as a named driver on my mothers policy again
My details:
Age - 21
Years Driving - 2
No Claims Bonus - 0
I just can't help but think im being raped here? Im currently with CIS.
Is there anywhere else i could try ?
My brother is paying 100.00 a month FULLY COMP on a turbo diesel astra in his OWN NAME at 17 years of age

Well i'm also 21 with zero no claims bonus and been driving 3 years and i made a claim during the summer for an accident which was my fault also lol so i know how u feel.
Its really annoying when u finally reach 21 after all those years of thinking insurance would be cheap to find out ur no better off than when you were 17
try these:
quinn direct - http://www.quinn-direct.co.uk (my old insurers) - very reliable and reasonably cheap.
kwikfit - http://www.kwik-fit.com (just got insured today) - cheapest i'v seen. I got quoted 1200 fully comp on a frst and 750 3rd party fire and theft. I drive a metro thaugh which is insured for just over 400 3rd party

wow you guys are really getting shafted for insurance, i laugh everytime insurance comes up with young people.....
lets see
car-mitsi galant
engine-2.5 V6
age-19
driving-2 years(3 actually to be pedandtic, but 2 since i passed test)
insurance
1 year ncb
excess-400 voluntary-150 have to pay
european cover-50 quid added on, had to do it as i drove to brugge last year
actuall insurance cost
800 english quids(850 with euro cover)
so thats 66 quid a month....back of the net.
i think what helped me is that i have no crashes on my record or points on liscence, and i bit the bullet last year at 18 years old insuring a mk1 golf GTi(1200 quid) and didnt claim anything, kept clean and it dropped 400 in a year....think if you insure a performance car at an early age and dont bin it and claim of insurance they keep record, and see that and must do something about....
ive gone from
1600 group 9 car
1800 group 9 car
1600 group 14 car
2.5 V6 group 14/15 car cant remember
try moneysupermarket.com insurance section i found them the cheapest, but to be honest you binned a car early on in your driving life which is a bad thing insurance wise

The annoying thing is after the crash, they CANCELLED my insurance without telling me, because i ' didnt provide sufficient information within the 14 day period ' about the accident. So i drove for 4 days without insurance, until i got stopped, had my car confiscated, had to pay 119.00 to get it back from the local compound, and the next morning there is a letter on my doormat from CIS.
Ill never use them again. Talk complete crap.

17 years old and just got insured on a nissan micra dad main driver for £868 on a car barely worth £400.
I know somebody who wrote off a fiat bravo 1.4 and is insured on a fiat bravo 1.6 now his own name at £1200 tpft and hes got 3 points as well. only 18 years old but i dont know if the claim went through his insurance as he was saying he wasnt at fault.

Dreaming of my first FRST....

im 18 still tryna work up my ncb i will get it in january and for females insurance is significantly reduced because there's no such thing as a girl racer lol the insurance companies prejudicism against males!!!! ah well i guess we're better drivers and insurance companies persuade more women on the road with cheap insurance, and i aint got nothing against females driving, just as long as i'm no where near them whilst i'm driving on the road, lol
