There annual quote was £9300, Just more bearly half of what I was quoted from other companies


Seems like your only option then but you could buy another car and insure it for less than that, I would honestly just do that and wait until you're more experienced. The Golf R is no joke of a car (I'm guessing its the MK7). Not to be rude but if I knew there was a 17 year old behind the wheel in one on the road I was using I'd just park up and wait til you got a good few miles way from me.

You crash, you're ****ed put it that way.

Try veygo, they're pricey for more than a week's worth of insurance, but I think they're one of the only temp insurer which will insure a 17 year old IIRC.


Yes but they do not allow Fleet insurance as the main policy same with Traders insurance.

"Since young" implies a bit longer than a few months ago...

I find it hard to believe you now.

Can you pm me the name of the company?? I'm being forced to buy a new car since the quote for the A3 I want to get insured on is greater than a maximum value which LV told me means I can't get the quote or some bs like that.

I done it privately through a insurance company that our rental company uses
