Default Hey - Just joined

Had a 170bhp Starlet Turbo 800kg's





Sold it to save up some money for a scooby uk turbo, i'm 20 with 1 NCB and 2 years held licence, live in a nice area




I have tried some quotes in the gocompare and best ive got was 4k so far, but with some hardwork i know it can be bought down'

My starlet was 2000 a year with 0 NCB and its a import

Now i've got a 1NCB and it will be UK Spec

I understand people can't guess but a rough answer would be nice and also anyone else insuring a scooby turbo at 20 ?

Cheers!

thankyou, yep it might end up being wishful thinking, Admiral Multicar are very reasonable but wont insure me till im 21 so maybe that will be the only option, but as ive said ive got a quote for 4k and hopfully can improve that considerably as thats only my first quote i've done

I bought my uk spec when I was 20 about 3 years ago. When I got it I was paying about 3k and that was with 3 NCB. I guess with insurance how it is now 4k is a damn good price for a 20 year old!

I dont feel that any Scoobynet insurers will entertain 20 year old with only 1 year's NCB on an Impreza, it is not something Sky Insurance would do.
