Go on someone elses traders insurance.
The only thing is the excess for under 21's is huge!

Not as easy as that dan. On a traders policy you have to inform them via the MIB what vehicles you have.There is one way that a 17 year old can get insurance on anything...

I tried to cover mine with a few different trader companies. They would not entertain me.

policy holder has to be 21+ then add other drivers on as Spouses not named drivers.
16 -17 yer olds can be added but obviusly it does bump up the price but not as much as it would be on normal insurence
also perks are you can drive multiple cars on the insurence and caps can be set to engine sizes and values for the younger drivers on the policys.

Do trade policies have agreed values though? so that means you crash your 20k mini and they pay you 500quids... the going price for an old mini.
Also with trade insurance, dont you need to prove that you trade a minimum of 7 cars a year? Do you not have to pay VAT and declare all your car sales...?

Also though.. I'd take into account what the guys have said above about traders insurance and agreed values etc before you jump in because its a cheap price!

When I tried to insure my mini, which at the time was standard engine wise but was deseamed and few bits and bobs nobody would even entertain me. I was 17 going on 18.
But I got put on traders policy, fully comp, any vehicle, anytime for around £300.
Alot of newer trade policys have alot of rules and regs that older ones dont, like younger drivers not being able to drive over a certain CC, times etc etc.

I insure with HIC there in the Mini World mag all the time £250 with a guaranteed value of £20k should it all end in tears. But I guess i'm an old git at 37.
That's not bad at all. I am paying £374 with Adrian Flux and I am an even older git at 48. Time to shop around methinks.
And that is not agreed value as I didn't send any of the agreed value forms off last time.
