I know this has been done many times before, but prices change all the time
Im 21, female and drive an ancient corsa with 2 years no claims. Cheapest quote ive found myself is £260 with Tesco
Does anyone know of an insurance company that you think may be cheaper?
Last time i renewed Norwich Union was cheapest for me, but this time they are more expensive
ETA: These are what i have tried so far

I saved over £200 with them
Oops actually i did try those forgot to add it to my list though. It was cheaper than alot but still not cheaper than tesco. cheers anyway
Yeh im guessing it is cheap, but i do like to make sure ive shopped around properly and got the absolute cheapest! (dam students)
but another thumbs up for swift cover here, saved a few hundred quid with them, all online, even your certificate. cant complain one bit.
Who i'm with, they were astronomically cheaper than any of the other companies. £820, nearest quote to that was about £1900. They don't ask many questions though, so you tend to get away with more, as they're quite a new company.
That's good.
I sell for Post Office car insurance and we'll get nowhere near that quote.
so im satisfied im getting the best offer!
Liverpool Victoria have always been very good for me though.
Try the CO-OP insurance, or go to www.1stquote.com and they will search for the best quote...
But what have I got to look at when buying a car? I assume that anything with cheap and plentiful spare parts will have cheaper insurance. How much do you save by getting the crappy older version of the car you want (that won't end up going on repairs anyway)?
Cars with smaller engines tend to be lower insurance.
you would need one with a low insurance group which you can find out on the ave website.
Sheilas wheels wont insure students, god damnit!!!!
And diamond want £2000 more than tescos for me??
Mines only group 3
Just done tesco for a group 1 car and that's about £760. To be honest, I'd rather pay the extra £200 and have a car that can actually get up hills. But if I was gonna get a group 6 car, I'd probably go for an entry level bigger car, like a 1.6 Astra or Focus rather than a fiesta, now I know there's not much difference in price anyway.
