VTS Insurance
As luck would have it ive been offered a mint VTS from a friend who lost his license some time ago, its perfect Mk2 low milage and he only wants enough to pay his fine for it, so i can get a nice low price. Only thing holding me back is insurance. A quick glance on confused found the cheapest at £2500 !!
I wouldnt dream of going anything except fully comp. So im needing a good company which favours us youngans. My details:
Age: 19
License Held: 10 months
Years NCB: 1
Current insurer: Churchill (they wont insure me on a VTS untill im 21)
Thing is as i can get the car cheap i dont mind paying quite a bit more than my current insurance, like around £1800 fully comp perhaps, even tho the car is cheap £2500 seems way to high to even think about it being worth it. ideas?

so i guess looking for anything below say £1700 im jus pissing into the wind ? Adrian Flux jus quoted me £1750 but they say i can get more off if i ring as its jus an estimate, so i might have ot give em a bell. Seems they are cheapest atm.

Some insurance companies now off No Claims bonus for named drivers aswell. So you could always register it under your parents names with you as a named driver, save yourself a bit of money and still get the no claims bonus!! Not quite sure who it is that does it though, but definetly worth looking into in my opinion

when i got quoted at 19 with 1year ncb was about 1600 for fptf which is a joke and about 1800 for a 106 gti both insurance group 13/14 with the 106 gti spossidly cheaper, ended up gettin n almera gti group 14 for 950 tpft shows how much it doesnt just go down on n insurance group,
