So many people i know of a younger age have saved loads with elephant.co.uk


I'm one of them


Not 100% sure whether they insure imports, but its worth a surf

You should always phone around. It's not that difficult is it.

Start with A plan. You'll find their details in the 'Insurance' section.

admiral and elephant (and diamond if you are a girl ) are the same company but do sometimes give different quotes.

I am a 28 with a 53 plate wrx, 1 years no claims (had a small crash last year), car is parked on a drive way at night, standard subaru cat 1 alarm, wife on the insurance, fully comp for £970.00 with elephant.

Yeah I just got quoted £730 fully comp. with £250 excess on my WRX STi Type-R STI V5. I'm 26 with 6 years no claims.

Also try Keith Richards Insurance, ask for Gary Moulson (he posts on here in Insurance Thread!). He gives good quotes although the excess is about £500.

When I first got my MY01 WRX a couple of years ago (when I was 23) I was insured with Tesco's and paying about £1000 fully comp. So maybe they'd be worth a try

Now I'm with Greenlight with the same car plus basic exhaust mods and I'm paying about £800 fully comp. Though I am 25 now with full no claims
