Insurance for youngish drivers?
Hello everyone
I'm 24 and my insurance is due on my puma 90 next month.
Been driving 7 years and have got 6 years no claims.
Would anyone recommend any companies for younger drivers as I cant seem to get quotes cheaper than 1400 Big Cry
Thanks
Mark

That sounds a bit pricey! Have you tried all the usual suspects that advertise in LRO?

No just the usual online comparison websites, most are charging a fortune unless your 25.
Unfortunately got 6 months to go before that.
I will give that a go tommorow thank you Thumbs Up

Try adding another older driver too if you can. That should help.

As long as your insured that's the main thing. Unlike many out there. Rolling Eyes

I was with flux for many years but this year swapped to NFU as they wouldn't take my Girlfriend as a leaner driver.

However we have now moved and increased mileage by 5k a year my premium has shot up by £52 a month so once things have settled down a bit I will be looking elsewhere unless they can do any better. Running Restoration Thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/post323197.html#323197

Thanks for your help, forgot to let you know who I ended up with.
Ended up with AXA by far the cheapest.
NFU and Aplan wouldnt touch me Rolling with laughter
