I got my insurance renewal through Friday, I'm 18 (nearly 19) and I've got a 1.6 Zetec mk6 Escort.

For me to insure it last year, 3rd party @ 17 with no no claims it was £1400

My renewal, all the same, but 18 with 1 years no claims....

£700!

I'm well pleased as thats half!! Still a rip off I know but I'm glad its so much cheaper!

I told them about my s/s exhaust too and they put that on there at no extra cost

Getting the first year out of the way claim free is a real help to getting your insurance down to more sensible levels

Get on the phone mate and just give the bullshit like:

Your Dads offered you the car so if you buy it how much for insurance in your own name

I went on my own straight away, deffo worth it now

Would HATE to think what the Saff costs you to insure then, if a 1.6 Escort is £700

top stuff mate!

Put your dad or something on the policy as a named driver, this will help to bring the premium down.

With me as the main driver on my mondeo and my dad as the second driver, knocks almost £250 off

Where do you live mate

Phone up as yourself, and just ask for a quote in that case

Or try it on the net, that never seems to work for me tho

That was 3rd party not fully comp??

i use confused.com, some people don't like it, i always find it gets me the cheapest quote

Same, my fiesta turbo was 1100 in mothers name and me as a named driver.

Although I'm getting quotes of around £1400 for an M3 in my own name with 0 ncb and 3 points at 20.

Loving being older

Wonder what they want for a saph.
