I've had my driving license for about 8-9 months now and I've done the Pass Plus etc.
I was looking at cars a couple of days back; sizing up different motors etc. and getting quotes. But I cannot get ANYTHING below 1500 quid for insurance, with just me as a named driver.
Are there any tips or good reputable companies to get insurance from? I've been looking at very small engines but even this doesn't make a difference.
I do have at my disposal a father with too many years no-claims and who is a police officer (I'd have thought that'd help?) but I'm not sure how to go about doing it for me and him. Do I make him the named driver? But does that mean I can't build no-claims?
The idea was to get, ideally one about 1000 quid and work my arse off in the summer and pay off a large proportion of it (is that allowed?) and then only have to pay like 30 quid a month for the rest of the year. I don't even care about driving the bloudy thing, I just want to build no claims as that seems to be where all the discounts are1!
Help!
