car insurance any input?

[steyel]

right im 18 and call me daft iv chosen an escort 1.6 16valve as a first car partly cus my m8 was sellin it cheap as needed to get rid its in great nick myt I add

neway as you would expect quotes arent exactly cheap lol

so just wondering if any of you kno of any particularly good insurance companies which would give a fair qoute or any that you have dealt with and found to have been good?

if needs be il sel the car n get a smaller car but id like to keep it cus of the fact all my m8s only have 1.2 corsas lol

[steyel]

also any tips wat to tell the insurer to get a cheaper qoute as the car has mods on it aswell e.g alloys body kit lights and exhaust

I'll be in the same boat for insurance soon.
Insurance quotes are different for everyone, so you would still have to do a fair ammount of ringing around for the best as it's the only real way of knowing.
I can say that a 1.6 with mods won't be cheap 'cause i'm on a 1.6sport at the minute until I get my car, and they wanted £1300 on top of the £200 my step-mam pays and I would have to pay £600 excess (fair do's I don't have my lisence yet but still..). Luckily there was a way around having to pay all that

insurance wnt let my dad have a seperate policy on my car in which he is the named driver because they have wised up to youngs lads doing it that way

what company you with jenny because with quin direct if you insure yuor car on l plates with them before you pass your test then your qoute when you pass is well cheap

the lad i bought the escort of is was his first car and was only 1800 fully comp with quinndirect beacause he insured it on l plates with them where as they want 3 grand for me without mods

My first "car" was a 1.7 astra van and that was only 500hundered or so, and my car is a bmw 5.25 m sport 2003 and thats only 900 quid!

First car; Astra 1.4 Group 6 = £1400 @ 17

Second Car: saxo 1.6 Group 7 = £750 @ 19 1Yr NCB

My saxo running 170+ bhp all mods declared = £1100 @ 20 2Yr NCB.

Dont tell em about the mods, it only matters of you crash!

have a look on the internet and do search . if i was u tell them the car has mods i no it makes it exppesive but if u dont tell them and u have a accident and its not on your policy then it can make it void plus u will be in serious trouble.
