dghodges 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Hi all, I've got my heart set on buying a 90/91 G60 but had a horrible thought that there might be an age restriction on getting insured. At 22 years old in England will I be able to be insured and does anyone know of decent brokers for young drivers? Hope ur answers are YES YES and YES!! Cheers, Dave (budding enthusiast) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe M 0 Posted October 7, 2003 Try http://www.elephant.co.uk Was 22 when my policy started on my vr6. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted October 7, 2003 21 - 3 years ncb and an SP30 - just sorted my renewal on a VR for £850 FC. Search for insurance, there are quite a few threads with people quoting their insurance details. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dazzyvr6 0 Posted October 7, 2003 best bet would be to look in the back of most car mags for insurance companies that cater for the younger drivers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pringles 0 Posted October 7, 2003 im 23 with a vr6 im with herts insurance consultants (HIC) their number will be in the vw mags Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted October 7, 2003 I'm sure it's possible. But are you ready for the actual numbers?? It's gonna be WAY pricey... :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted October 7, 2003 Got my VR when I was 21. 6 points for speeding (2 SP30s) and only 2yrs NCB (at the time). Went under the same insurance as my previous car (MX5! lol) and then at renewal, with 3yrs NCD, still 6 points and turned 22, was £1111 fully comp with Adrian Flux. Just renewed for £950 Fully Comp. So yeah, course it's possible! And I live in South London, in a not too fantastic area, car is mod'd, and it's parked on the street all the time.

IWANTASTORM 0 Posted October 11, 2003 ADMIRAL, I bought a 3 year old BMW 328i Sport when I was 22 and got insured for 1200, had no noclaims at all then either. Here's a hint put your mum as a named driver, it knocked 200 off my policy. Dont know why but it works Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
