Hi there ive just recently bought a v4 subaru impreza sti (import) 97 model

Im having problems with my current insurer Adrian Flux as there now saying they wont touch me on this car as im only 21.... even thought a few month back i enquired about insuring an impreza and they says i had to be 21 to get a quotation!! my renewal is end of october so im just gona have 2 find a different company to insure my scooby next munth.

my last car was a nissan pulsar gti-r (import) running 350bhp so ive got a history of having quite powerful cars

The Scooby has a cobra 4138 cat 1 alarm and immobiliser fitted and i live at a secure postcode

Can anybody recommend a company to try? i know im gona be payin a high premium due to my age but there must be somebody who will cover the car for a competative price?

Kind Regards Anthony

Try a company called paragon. 08000912444

Or try norwich union/churchill.

When I was 21 with about the same no claims only tesco would quote me and that was £1400 with 500 excess

I'm with A-Plan, they gave me the best quote. Also I got a surprise with a very good one with the Royal Bank of Scotland. Neither one required a tracker.

Mate,

If you have a history of performance cars try either Keith Michaels or A-Plan.

I'm insured via Gary at KM (aka Moley WRX - a user of Scoobynet) he is brilliant. Best prices and best service everytime.

Adrian Flux are pants for Imprezas.... I had a quote of something like £2.5k for a 27 year old with 7 years ncb and that was on a standard Type R. £895 for my first year with Moley and now down to 845 with all mods (see my scooby) declared.

I pay £585 fully comp through Academy on my 99 type r ltd, 26 years old 6 years ncb (protected) . Adrian flux were £600, and moley didnt even bother to respond to the 2 messages i left on his voicemail!

another vote for KM ! i was insured through flux for my first year, 27 , 9 yrs no claims , it was a task to get them to insure me on my scoob as it was my first turbo car, i was paying around 1200 fc but with 500 voluntary excess and they wouldnt do anythin if it got stolen even tho i have a clifford. renewal came up and quoted me £900! called and spoke with patrick at km, am now paying £625 with all mods and no stupid excess etc, i got through first time of trying and realll really happy with the service, top guys!

I found A Plan were very good for me when I had my STI.
I now have a BMW 530D and they still gave me the best quote out there.
Can't recommend them enough.

Good luck.

20yrs old, 2nd driver, 97 sti, had my license just over a year now

dads 1st driver, got 6yrs no claims

gone up from £600 living in barnet to £900 in seven kings because apparently seven kings is a "high risk area" :S

If you have a history of performance cars:


try performance direct,,,,

im a bit older than you but 5 points 7 years no claims impreza saloon £ 284
they will ask for history of performance cars . not sure about your age though

21, male, high performace car.....
You fall into the extremely high risk category
I have owned performance cars for oh, 16+ years, i still pay more than i would like, and i live in a nice area.
The only thing you can do is shop around, owning a performance car does not mean you can drive one well though

So would I be right in saying that you give your dad the money for the premium and you drive the car more than he does?

Ns04

PS. If his no-claims in intact, presumably you paid for this off out of your own pocket?

Got a feeling that it wont be on his insurance NS04, ive been driving 20 years and live in the country, i wish i had 600 quid insurance quotes on scoobs!

Well, I'm rather hoping that if it is his Dad's insurance policy, then ma99 IS only the second driver. Because claiming to be the a named driver on a policy where you are, in point of fact, the principle driver, is illegal and will render your insurance invalid.

Insurance companies aren't silly: if a car is registered to a young un, but insured by an older family member, they'll suss it out come claim time, especially if it was the younger driver behind the wheel....as was the case above. All well and good if you only bend the car a bit against the curb, but what if other vehicles are involved and, god fobid- someone gets hurt?

Being without insurance doesn't bare thinking about does it?

TonyBurns

iTrader: (3)

6 points and a slap on the wrist probably...
But so many people think that going on an older persons insurance with their car is legal, they dont seem to read the small print where it says "owner and main driver", apart from fraud, it will be added to your licence, then try to get insurance (driving without insurance!)
