I thought i got a good deal

22 (now 23)
97 UK impreza turbo
5 years NCB
No points
3PFT
All mods declared (alloys, exhaust + power increase, filter etc - approx 240 bhp)
Parked on driveway (no tracker or even alarm needed?!)
No accidents

£550
Ecar

I could have had fully comp for 750 but just wasn't worth it on an impreza of this age.

I checked against a WRX with the same bhp and all the same details as above and only endsleigh would touch me for 1750!! Says it all really!

I think the best thing to do if you are a younger impreza driver (or want to be) is to get a UK model and spend the massive amount of money you saved on insurance on a couple of sensible mods, which don't really seem to put the premium up too much (but check with insurer first obviously)

To be honest i don't really agree with people under 23 driving high performance cars like this as not everyone realises how much power they have under the bonnet, but if you really want a fast car the impreza has got to be one of the safest with the 4wd. I had an e36 m3 before the scoob, cost me over 1300 to insure at 21 and was a handful in the dry and just plain dangerous in the wet!

Just my opinion though, Good luck with the insurance guys.

I'm 21 (will be 22 on 16th feb)
I pay £1400 with 3 yrs ncb for my 53 wrx sti
I had to go with diamond as they were the only people who didnt laugh at me on the phone when gettin quotes...
Maybe its cheaper beacuse I'm a woman but still weird as I was paying the same on my civic type r before I gt the scooby...

I'm 23 years old

2007 Hawkeye STi

All mods declared - Remap/Exhaust/Fuel Pump/Front Splitter/Prodrive Springs/Zero Sports Upper Spoiler/Filter

3 Years NCB with 7 years driving experience

3 points for an SP30

I'm with Bell

£1250 is the premium

Not bad if I do say so myself, my profession may have an affect on my premium as well as my postcode as I'm with the same insurer as drtchock by the looks and I'm paying less than half of what he is paying!

I knew there would be some perks to this job!!

hope car is in ur mum's name if u ever need to claim on insurance and they need the v5..... otherwise if they find out then u are not insured because the car has to be in the "main" drivers name on insurance and logbook

big response from everyone on this thread!!!

turns out some people either really really like subarus or have really deep pockets because i couldnt pay wot some people are paying for insurance here

insurance is just one of those things that bumms us all

but according to this thread and my own experience; IF U ARE UNDER 25 looking to insure a subaru, its cheaper if u:

haven't crashed,
have no points,
and buy the uk turbo 2000 instead of import wrx,

at the very least u could get the turbo 2000 and using the money u save on insurance u could tune up the car to 280bhp like the imports (like me ).

so, youve got yourself a wrx, but its insured in your mums name, ok technically owned by her, but your gonna be the main driver in theory, unless shes driving you everywhere?

well done fella, youve managed to scam an insurance company

make plenty of friends on here acting like that

And i assume you'll be telling the insurers that you're that main user, rather than a casual user?
