I'm 21 years old and have been looking at quotes for a hawkeye because I'm planning on buying one in the first few months of the new year.

I've been onto the Admiral Car Insurance and they quoted me £1680 with both my parents as named drivers which I thought was pretty damn good for a 2006 Hawkeye Impreza STI.

I then changed the car to a 2007 Hawkeye Impreza STI and it brought the quote down to £1024 per year...

LOL? That's a damn good quote if it's correct considering I'm 21 where some people aged 18-20 are paying over £2000 per year on tiny vehicles..


Edit: Just changed the vehicle to a peugeot 206 and it's quoting £518 ...I really don't understand how insurance companies work out their quotes....

At times I think Admiral baffle those who work in the industry with their prices as well

I pay more than that at 32...

Dont forget the difference in road tax between the two when it comes to working out your yearly costs

Well anyway Ive saved the quote reference and if I can get insured fully comp for that price of about 1 grand, Im gonna be a happy chappy!

I was looking on 'go compare' and the cheapest quotes were all around £4-5k. But I find that 'go compare' sucks with actually comparing and searching for quotes.

And yes PaulJC, however a 2006/2007 hawk are the same road tax of about £420 or something? The only hawk which is the cheaper tax of about £200 is the '55 plate, correct me if Im wrong.

My wife (26) has just got insurance with me on a Mercedes B200 Turbo for £1100 and she passed her test 2months ago! With only 60bhp less, living in a Bradford postcode and no driving experience that seems really good as well. Maybe this is the time of year to get a quote...before the winter sets in and cars start sliding around into each other.
