Re: 10 k plus insurance
Will have to find something he can insure, even if it's just for the first year.
Just the Starlet SR is a cool first car imo.
Sky, can you help?

Re: 10 k plus insurance
If you want cheap avoid anything jap as a first car as it aint gonna happen unless you have some serious wedge.
As Kev said ford KA are mega cheap, ford fiesta's, vauxhall corsa's and polo's are generally a little more but still affordable.
I just didnt drive for my first year, Just too expensive and also i refused to pay upwards of 5k to drive a sodding polo or something
Iirc the cheapest thing i ever found was an Austin mini 1.0 city E Just the price of the car that was the problem You cant really win

Re: 10 k plus insurance
its S*!t welcome to being young, insurance groups don't always mean cheap insurance, there's loop holes like old mercs and estate vehicles are cheaper just strange crap, its more me to insure a robin reliant than it is something like a 190E
In the league of ultimate procs
Re: 10 k plus insurance
Reliant Robin are cheap as. As you can actually drive them on your cbt.

KA coming in at 5k.
Probably cheaper to get banned for no insurance and take your test again
(not that we'd do this)

Re: 10 k plus insurance
Sounds about right, although i think even i got cheaper qoutes than that Was about £3000 for me. If you know someone in a posh area try using their postcode to see if that makes a difference. It didnt here Hull because well....there arent any posh area's But if i put it in hessle it was about £400 cheaper
Would definitely be cheaper that way not recomended mind you Have you tried putting him as a named driver ? Some companies still allow it some won't. Try old Volvo's i know it aint exactly cool and his mates will think wtf you got your mums car for but if it gets you on the road who cares, besides he'll have a turbo......LOW boost but turbo is turbo

Re: 10 k plus insurance
Tbh I think they just spew out these ridiculous costs so that young drivers will resort to the 'black box'
Seems the only way to get a reasonable quote these days.
