Hi,
Just going about looking for a better insurance quote as I am paying far too much right now.. I was wondering if anyone knows who would be the cheapest for young drivers?!

Admiral always came out top for me, but like Paul says depends how young. If you are young its going to cost a lot no matter what company it is.

IIRC X7LDA is young, give him a pm
yup im 20......... and to be honest the best quote im getting it touching 5k..!! BUT, done a quote for when i hit 21 and it drops to 1.5k with Elephant. So might be your best shout!! Either that or Bell.co.uk are good!
p.s - im canceling my current policy when i hit 21 to go with Elephant and i've worked it out i'll have only paid 2.8k rather than the full 5
Not just a hat rack

Well i'm 26 and i can't seem to beat Tesco! I've tried another 3 recently but they either won't insure elises anymore.... or i'm too young!
Apparently 3 out of 5 elise drivers clain in the first year......
Let me know if you find anything better than tesco!!!!

I found elephant cheapest for the first year - aged 27 - 8years NCD.
Then they doubled the quote the next year!

Sorry.
It was one week short of one year of ownership, but I'd already had a "year" of policy with Admiral (10 month accelerator thingy), so it doesn't count!
Admiral were cheapest for me first year (26 at time). Just got a great quote with Chris Knott.
A-Plan told me their best deals are for over-30s and I've never been able to get a competitive quote from them.

I found A-plan and a lot of the other specalists won't quote for under 25's when i called them. Think I paid £790 to elephant with 2 years NCD this year at the age of 24. I've always found with the admiral group that adding a 'responsible' older lady
brings the price down by a few hundered pounds.

I think i'll stick to Tesco for now... i pay £650 (5 yrs no claims) - although i need a tracker fitted if i want it covered for theft!
