So the faster HDI is actually cheaper to insure then the slower petrol version of the same car, shows insurance companies don't work on speed / performance
Wonder what a Laguna II 1.9 DCi would work out at - only issue is owning one is like owning a hand grenade with the pin removed

Must just be the lack of experience they account for

Thanks for your replies and I've considered black box but due to doing shift work it may mess me up and I don't always stick to the speed limit but don't exceed 10%+2 (police fresh hold according to AA advanced motering course) |
During my first year I was with Bell insurance had a box, there's no curfew and at 17 I got my first year at (£2000) may be worth looking at

Because they are the scum of the earth .. just behind estate agents (or maybe in front now!)
It's also one way to avoid them picking up the risk but without refusing you insurance. If they did that you would have to declare it and you would never get insured ...
While you are a learner, you can just be a named driver on an adult's insurance ... get your Mum to insure it as the main driver and you as a named one ... after all you aren't able to use it all the time without an adult with you. Note that she can only have her NCB on one car if you have two or more. That should be under £1000 even with you on it for a year .. but once you pass your test, you have problems ...
Insurance companies also differ on named drivers. One I used wanted my 18 year old as the named driver on the 206 even though he was at Uni most of the year, walked to work when home for hols, and I used car most days for business! Needless to say, they got dumped ... Found Aviva and LV= most understanding and could cope with me having two cars and him only on one ...
There are companies that specialise in younger drivers ... but I'm not 100% sure about just internet based ones ... try specialist broker's. Also try Prestige on 0800 3308057 or 0333 4001580 from a mobile that offer club deals and may recognised this forum as one (they do discounts for the 206CC forum members).
