ChrisD Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Hello all, I am 19, soon to turn 20 (on the 21st of April) and I am looking for some insurance on my car (to start on the 21st) its a 2003 WRX Impreza 2.0 turbo, I desperately need to sort something. most people just turn me down and evan adrian flux after being a owners club member, buying a dash cam, doing my IAM course has given me a stupid quote of 15 Grand... i mean i do have some very small mods on it but still that just sounds ridiculous Please can anyone help. I am willing to pay around 3 grand ish, reward to anyone who can help me find something !!! Thanks in advance Chris.
stants Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Have you tried keth Micheal or sky or mark Richards all brokers
ChrisD Posted March 25, 2015 Author Posted March 25, 2015 Gary at km couldnt even quote me, sky I am waiting to here from and will try mark r thank you :)
Ash007ks Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Admiral, also dont do quotes online as most people wont give you the time of day, i got my scoob at 21 and it was 1700 back then
ChrisD Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 Thanks man, will give them a call. It seems 21 it drops a healthy amount
Scoobyghost Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 At 21 it drops and then again at 25 it drops even more.
Steveuk260.Esq Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 See also quinn direct. I had them when I started driving. Was only 1.8 Toyota avensis tho.
DAN@ADRIAN FLUX Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Hi, Thanks for trying us, sorry it seems we were unable to help. Unfortunately our underwriters do have minimum age restrictions to insure high performance vehicles.If you can PM me your details I would be more than happy to take another look into this Kind regards, Dan. 1
ChrisD Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 Thanks dan and thanks Steve will give them a try!
Gambit Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 I'd give greenlight insurance a ring too. But can always see if dan can help anymore and try steves recommended company too. Just a shame your age will be always what goes against you. I had the same problem I wanted the RS escort but my age well cost I couldn't fo it ended up with a gti a year later. Still never did get the rs lol. So at least you got one [emoji4] 1
ChrisD Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 I have one as a very expensive, but very beautiful drive way aurniment. Until the ransom of £6300 (current best quote) is paid to release it from its sorn grasp. Thanks gambit. Will give them a go :)
richr Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 See also quinn direct. I had them when I started driving. Was only 1.8 Toyota avensis tho. Be carefull with Quinn i know a year or so ago they were told not to trade in the UK as there were questions about what they were doing. Things might be ok now but i would check first 1
ChrisD Posted March 31, 2015 Author Posted March 31, 2015 Thank you all for your help. I have results !!!!!!! elephant have insured me, all my mods full comp with all the added cover (£1500 excess all be it ) for £2150 !!!! i am on the road and loving it ! Thanks every for your help :) 1
stants Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Whey well done mate , bit more reasonable that 15k ! Will we be seeing you at the Sheffield meet this month ?
Scoobyghost Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Steep, but if it gets you on the road good stuff!
Jay762 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Similar to what I had to pay at the same age - however that doesnt take into account 20+ years inflation so not a bad deal at all :)
Mikey133 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Im 21 with with 3 years ncb with a 03 impreza sti and its only £700 for the year with admiral
ChrisD Posted April 1, 2015 Author Posted April 1, 2015 Yea 21 seems to be when it drops a lot, hopefully that's what i have to look forward to next year ! probably doesn't help having mods such as an after market exhaust, spoiler, alloys, Re-Map, strut braces and so on :') but it's sorted for a year, on the road and I am loving it !
Scoobyghost Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Im 21 with with 3 years ncb with a 03 impreza sti and its only £700 for the year with admiralThat's a really good price. I'm 27, 6 years ncb and I pay 650 with Keith Michaels.
Mikey133 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Mines on a multi car policy with my brother (he is 18 no nbc and has a mini one) he pays 650 then we both have our parents on as named drivers but they are not allowed to touch the scooby ;) and that seemed to drop it a tonne, doing quotes online for just for me on my own they were coming back at 1200 to 2000, you just need to dig a bit there are always ways to get your insurance down
Mikey133 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Plus i have been woth the admiral group for the last 4 years even being a learner and threatening to leave fpr another company seems to drop it a bit as well lol 1
Scoobyghost Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Yeah admiral wanted 1300 for me alone with no mods. I'm allowed a few mods now with no extra cost. Area does make a huge difference too. I moved about 6 mile and my insurance halved.
ChrisD Posted April 1, 2015 Author Posted April 1, 2015 My company (Elephant) has basically said I can do any mods on my policy its just a £19.00 fee to add them as an admin fee ! that is one plus. 1
Scoobyghost Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Elephant and admiral are part of the same group so maybe it applies to all their companies.
