For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.my 18 year old colleague at workwas driving a 94 astra automatic - her premiums were around �700 a year with elephant.co.uk
All I can say is call literally EVERY company - very boring but very worth it. I am 31 with full no claims, and every year when my renewal is near I call up loads of companies. I just get to the point where everyone is quoting almost the same (around �300 last year) when someone quotes well below that).
Hope that helps
You won't find cheap car insurance - you are 18 and therefore you cost the insurance companies the most in claims: unfortunately, no matter how good a driver you may be, your age group are, statistically, poor drivers.
Just be thankful you are not male: personally, I don't think young men should be allowed to drive until they are at least 21 - young men are too immature to be in control of a vehicle.
Hi nicnicnic.
I'm a 20 year old male and my insurance premiums are even worse! For Third Party, Fire & Theft I've been quoted �1100 on a S Reg Clio. Being a young male driver, apparantly I'm a "boy racer"!
I managed to get Fully Comprehensive insurance from the Halifax for �1380. An extra 200 quid, but if I have an accident that is my fault, at least I'm covered. Give them a try. Also, have you tried the female only insurance groups? I have no idea what they are called but there is one exclusively for woman drivers.
Re: flanker's comments: I think you're a very rude, judgemental person to think that every male under the age of 21 are too irresponsible to drive. I have no interest in 'wheelspins', no interest in buying 'phat speakers with pumpin bass', and certainly no intention of drag racing other boyracers in supermarket car parks at 1am.
I just want the opportunity to drive myself safely from one destination to the other without being tarred with the same "boyracer" brush.
