wemneb 0 Posted October 30, 2005 Hi, i'm looking at getting a corrado and finding one for the right price isn't too difficult, but finding half decent insurance is a bit more of a problem (i know its never going to be "cheap" at 18 )! Just wondering which companies under 21's on here use? cheers, ben. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
veeDuB_Rado 0 Posted October 30, 2005 Lol, erm I tried everywhere mate, I got several massive quotes. Ive got no restrictions etc no convictions. and i found that dial driect found the cheapest. well it wasnt cheap but it was the least amount i found, i found it through confused.com good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wemneb 0 Posted October 30, 2005 If u don't mind me asking, how much are u paying at the moment? What engine have u got? I'm looking at these kinda prices with elephant when i'm 19 (2 years license, 1 NCB, and clean license): 91 g60.............£1350 92 2.0 16V.......£1556 91 1.8 16V.......£1578 all fully comp. it's about 300 quid less tpf&t.

veeDuB_Rado 0 Posted October 30, 2005 Well put it this way, Ive been driving for about 3-4 months now and my Corrado was my first car. Insurers waasn't so kind to me and I'm paying £2702 (To insure a g60 wouldve been only £120 more lol) Engine is a 1.8 16v. Do believe I couldve got some cheaper but it was a case of "INSURE NOW!" as soon as I got home from my driving test lol. Not about the money to me tho :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matthewb1985 0 Posted October 30, 2005 im 20 and paying £900 tpft with adrian flux on a 1993 2.0 16v 1 years ncb & a clean licence Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valerian 0 Posted October 30, 2005 Let me put it this way chaps. I'm 43 years old and with Highway i pay £165 and that's as a second car with only 30% discount. Hope that's made you feel better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 10 Posted October 30, 2005 wemneb, the G's the cheapest? crazy. I found AXA pretty good at your age. - just dont crash though! their claims dept are rubbish! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StormchargedVR6 0 Posted October 30, 2005 Try TESCO, lad i work with just 20 payed £1200 for bmw 325i sport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted October 30, 2005 Also , it may be worth trying a quote with your mum or girlfriend added as a second driver, sometimes that makes it cheaper. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted October 30, 2005 I'm paying £2702 My God. That is over £200 a month! Fair play mate, you love the Rado. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wemneb 0 Posted October 31, 2005 Cheers, will give axa a try tomorrow, though they seem to be rac now (or at least i'm being directed to their site). Yeah, i couldn't work out the g being the cheapest? Surely its quicker than the 16v's? They did say i have to be 21 for a vr6 though, not that i can afford one anyway! Those quotes were with my mum and dad on, knocked off bout 3/400 quid in the end! Adrian flux have been giving me stupid quotes on a few cars, don't think they really aim for the under 21 market. Let me put it this way chaps. I'm 43 years old and with Highway i pay £165 and that's as a second car with only 30% discount. Hope that's made you feel better. one day, one day (maybe)! cheers, ben Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
veeDuB_Rado 0 Posted October 31, 2005 Holy cow, didnt know it goes down with othe people on ?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wemneb 0 Posted October 31, 2005 Yeah, i've found that only elephant/admiral/bell (all same company) seem to do it though. Not sayin there aren't others, just not many it seems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toddster900 0 Posted October 31, 2005 im 21 with 1 ncd and i am paying £1000 with admiral but like the guy said above best bet is to go on-line and try confused.com!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Astrasteve 0 Posted October 31, 2005 im 20,21 in may 3 years NCB and im paying £648 thru elephant on my 1992 G60 with my old dear as an aditional driver! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wemneb 0 Posted November 1, 2005 Hmm, cheapest with confused was £1600 TPFT, so few hundred quid more than elephant. Doesn't look like i'm gonna get any better than that to be honest! Was to be expected i suppose. Going to have a re-think now anyway! Cheers 4 the help guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lexstar16v 0 Posted December 23, 2005 I'm 19 paying 78 quid a month with norwich union direct 3 years no claims and no points yu cant beat that! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
white_vw_corrado 0 Posted December 23, 2005 £995 for me with admiral. Only 2 years no claims but im also Diabetic which ups the prices im afraid. But thats not all that bad for my 1.8 16V, strangly enough its the same price for the VR6! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g60greeny 0 Posted December 23, 2005 would never of dreamed of tryin to get insurance on a rado at 18 :lol: couple of yrs with a **cough**nissan cherry and a 1 litre metro was about all i could afford :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gradeAfailure 0 Posted December 23, 2005 I'm 19 paying 78 quid a month with norwich union direct 3 years no claims and no points yu cant beat that! How do you get 3 years' no claims at 19...?! Good luck though wemneb - my second car at 18 was an Uno Turbo and I was paying £950 a year tpft! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted December 23, 2005 How do you get 3 years' no claims at 19...?! Yeah I was thinking that, you can't get a car insurance policy until your 17..can you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob_B 0 Posted December 23, 2005 some companies transfer your NCB if you have a moped at 16. i insured my g60 at 19 with elephant, and am now insured with brentacre for 1000 tp+t Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
