    TIA

    Back in the day, most people I knew swore by Hyperformance, who seem
    to have a web site at http://www.youngerdriver.com/

    Probably worth a look.

    £1800 to £2000 for my lad to insure a Clio TPF&T.

    Eek.

    Caz was paying about the same on her Clio 16V when she was 18/19.

    Caz's was the hot hatch version. This was 4/5 years ago and insurance
    premiums were sky high for her. She wrote that one off and her insurance
    went sky high afterwards.

    Bad form etc:

    That is really badly written. I really must read my posts properly
    before hitting send.

    Seriously, try fully comp. Oddly it's sometimes cheaper.

    [teenage car insurance]
    Emily's ex-BF was quoted £1800 odd on a slightly better than cooking
    motor, halved after pass plus, still £900 is more than I would pay.
    Emily at 17 is paying £650 for a 1.1 Fiesta and Melissa at 20 is £450
    for a 1.0 Micra. OTH my Micra costs me £108 IIRC with 3 named drivers.

    At 18 I had a Mk1 Mini Cooper 1071S that I baulked at paying 90 quid a
    year to insure. The Viva HB that preceded it had cost me 65 quid a year,
    the Morris Minor Traveller before that was a fiver less.

    I had similar happen. One of my neighbours offered me his E-type 3.8 FHC
    for 350 quid. I couldn't afford the 250 quid to insure it. I bought the
    HB Viva instead.

  12. Yes, but Rope is talking about something that happened to him this
    morning.

    Yeah, I heard that too, but having tried a few it seems to load the price up
    by about a third.

    Indeed it is. Luckily my insurance doesn't expire until May, so i've added
    the car and the boy to my policy until then.

    Tonight marked another milestone too, I've just been out for a drive with
    him (seems only yesterday he being born).

    Heh, those were given to him gratis by some bloke where he works.

    As if anyone would pay for them.
