Good day to you all...... \:D/

Anyone want to recommed the names of insurance companies who insure young drivers??? I'm currently 17 and am looking to get a car sorted out. Would be loving it if I could get on a 1.5 323f!!!

I know of Adrian Flux ( Cheers Rich), but does anyone know of anymore so that I can shop around for a number of quotes!

????

Good luck mate! I'm 19 and have a 323f 1.5 - its a b*****d to insure - 800 quid TPFT for 1 year, although thats with no no claims bonus. will be the same next year for fully comp, with 1 years no claims...

So if your gonna go for an 'f im afraid urs is going to be hideously expensive!!!!

When i was 17 i was already with Tesco. That cost me an annual of £2000ish fully comp. Then went down to £1600. Then went down to...oh no, went back up again coz of mods to £1600. Go to www.skylinesrus.co.uk (i thinks thats the site) and they should be able to help you with insurers. Otherwise, there are massive amount of people you can try.

There is one called Liverpool something or other's (someone else help with this!?!)

I am with adrian flux now and am paying just over £1000 fully comp with all mods declared. not ezxactly cheap, but were defo the cheapest!

Good Luck!

Cheers Tucker101uk, and Stealth- Alex right? Well thats no more of a shock than i was expecting!!! Second thoughts now though- I'm gonna use my dads name, with me named on the policy!!!!! Means I've got more money for Mods!!!!!

Cheers lads

its all well and good doin that, but remember that if you are only a named driver, you dont earn no claims discount...

Cheers -
Tom (by the way)

Yeah thats true Tom, but if I'm not paying it, then its all good!!! Some insurance companies won't give you No Claims Bonuses till you're 21 though, or so The AA and Norwich Union told me!?!?!?!?!?!

Once I get out of college, and get into the police- I'll have the Greens to have it my own way, and begin to gather my own NCB!!!

Oh, and I'm into all the Modding scene, so no-one needs to post anything mean , cos I'd easily help out someone with a good car- rather than lettting them scuff their rims, or arrest them for stupid things like cruisin or neons!!!!!


Cheers anyway Tom

ttfn

cool - well im sure we'll be speakin on here soon - be seein ya!

For a 1.5 323f, Adrian Flux quoted me £1200. I'm 19, and I think that was the best quote yet.

Has anyone tried [url]http://www.maz323f.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php4?t=967[/url]?

Bought Max Power yesterday and something VERY interesting in there. They do a driving thingy that costs £99 or a full advanced driving course for £199. They guarantee that you will get at least a 25% discount on there list of approved insurers, like Adrian Flux. I am DEFO gonna do this as it will save me over £250 on my insurance! WoW!!!

Interesting..... any more details? :-k

Just gave Max Driver a ring. The thing starts this Monday. It's basically an Advanced Driving Test, and when on the phone they said you can save UP to, whereas the mag says from 25%!!! You can do a day's course for £199 or over time for £99. The £99 course means they'll probably see you once a month so you can practice your techniques...whatever! And you may not be able to update your insurance until your next renewal period. And also, they couldn't say whether or not it would only affect it for one year or permanently! Best to go on a proper advance training course i recon?!?

Have you got a number? (sorry, but I avoid things like Max Power like the plague!! I like semi-naked girlies as much as the next guy but when I buy a 'car' mag I expect to concentrate on gorgeous cars and not try to read through the purile bullsh!t that is their sorry-excuse for editorial content ) *RANT over* ](*,)

...but in the meantime; mind giving me the phone No. ... mate? [-o<

\:D/

Wai....... Here's the number for he Maxpower Insurance cutting thingy!
0208 996 9686

Might be better checking out the Institute Of Advanced Motorists though... http://www.iam.org.uk/. Richard's done that- He'll know a bit about it if you want some more info, failing that, check out their website as above!

How's the strut brace by the way?

cheers buddy

When I was 19 I tried Kwik-fit for a laugh and they undercut the rest by 30%. I have been with them since and they still undercut the rest by 25%. I pay £450 fully comp with an under 25 on the policy.

Hey Jam,

The strut brace is working fine thanks; I can feel the rear 'bite' more when I turn in hard and also when I'm on fast, curved motorway slip roads! ...can almost imagine that the inside rear could lift away when taking sharp corners (like you see in the likes of Clio Cup races!).



...may tighten it up to see how that goes... :-$

Lol go for it mate...... Ultimate go kart handling. Sling it into corners, and have fun with it!

Pleased it works- well it was fitted by Rich- its bound to be good- everything he does works like clockwork!!!

Cheers buddy

I am 17 and have ma pass plus and got insured with norwich union for £770 for the year, though they wanted £1300 without pass plus. They were by far the cheapest quote i got. After paying a small first of about £150 i only have to pay like £70 a month, which just about makes insurance affordable

I got a standard 1.5 GXi on tpft, just so u know

give it a try n see if they can quote you happy :P

Arty

Artermis, Is your car modified at all? cos if it is your insurance is invalid mate!

nope, not unless u count the fluffy dice :P I only had it about a month, not had time to do anything to it.

Arty

oh and just to let you lot know, I used to own a couple of scooters (italjet Dragsters 50, 125) which i had built up a yrs on claims on one of them. If you have had a years no claims on one of those mention it to the insurance company, some places do recognise it.

I think direct line do, i can't remember, though whoever it was wouldn't accept both that and the pass plus (as pass pluss acts as a yrs ncb or suffin?)

Heres the Maz Driver link
http://www.max-driver.com/
i'm definately looking into it as i rolled my pristine S reg on Sat night.
AD

You rolled your Mazda!!! How? Thats serious bad luck man. Got any pics? You looking at getting another Mazda?

Hey Adam

Gutted about ur motor fella: cry:

Im a northerner (Whitby) living down south at the moment but I spent many a good night on the revolving dance floor on the boat in Newcastle, u know the one
Ben

Well, i was up in Scotland for a few days holiday, driving along a nice country road at 11:45pm , as i was going round a corner a deer (not a little one, a red deer) jumps out from the embankment on my right and runs infront of the car, so general instinct says go round it instead of sending it through the windscreen, i move into the right lane, back end of the car steps out, try to recover it, car shoots left, hits a little embankment (50cm) car goes up into the air (starting to roll), flys over a fence and into a farmers field about 3m below the road, car rolls again and ends up on roof.


The next day go to see if there was any thing that fell out of the car when it was being recovered, there was oil on the road from a previous accident where someone else has decided to see if their car cud fly

what can you say, these things happen!!

I've got no pictures upside down in the field (wasn't the 1st thing on my mind) but my mates got a load from the recovery yard, i'll post them up as soon as i can.

Oh yeah, of course i'm getting another 323f once the claim is sorted, just gonna have to find the money for the insurance, which i don't think rolling the car will have helped

AD

All these flying cars around, too many people watching Taxi, still if a peugeot can do it why not a 323F. Don't think I'll be trying it (I hope).

Glad you're still with us.
