No chance what-so-ever in the slightest Id imagine.

I just turned 24, 3 years no claims, 3000 mile limited mileage, social use only on a standard 2WD Saff with tracker and CAT1 parked on driveway....£1800 3rd party F&T was the cheapest, by quite a lot.

I have a mate who's 20 just insured his for a bargain £2600.

Saying that I live in London but good luck

I struggled to get anyone to touch me on mine as I'm 24 and they all wanted 25+

In the end out of 25 phonecalls I got a quote for Greenlight for just shy of £900 with an agreed value but limited mileage of 3k, all mods declared

Insurance is the least of your worries its the bills!!

I know how you feel mate insurance was the contributing factor that kept me away from cossie ownership when I was in my 20's I remember being qouted £3600 for an Escos and £2500 for a 4x4 saph, I thought bollox to that I aint paying that (couldn't afford)

bought my car just after I turned 30 insurance came right down and still living the dream in my 30's lol

My advice, if aged 19, don't bother, especially if you already have an RST.
