im 17 and paid 1200 for my limited edition Mini 30 with fully comp but keep forgetting to tell them that i put a stage 1 kit on (maybe because they don't accept mods for under 25's). quick fit gave me a quote of 1600 fully comp for my 3litre MGC roadster so will be getting that once ive finished the restoration this month

Who you with pls?

im with Liverpool Victoria bud

I'd would advise anyone to get a quote from a local insurance broker. That's what I'm hoping to do for my next year. There's one in my local village who do very good deals, and the best thing is you can speak to them face-to-face.

i keep seeing people say 1700 pounds fully comp. i live in London my car is parked on a drive. I'm 16 atm. My sister has been driving a year now with 1 years NCB she is paying £1800, £1700 has put a happy face let alone the thought of sub £1000

I got my mini a while before I was 17. (I'm 17 now).
When I rang up for my first few quotes, they said that my speaker board, bucket seats and harnesses made the insurance more expensive than my air filter, silly exhuast and FG front end did.
I'd ring them and find out what they have to say.

My modifications are
FG front end, wheels, air filter, arches, zorst, dvd player, spot lights. But the lady at graham sykes (who I'm insured with) says that my occupation, milage and where I live made more of an impact then the modifications.

Hope that this is of some use to you

Even though I'm not 17 anymore, I think Adrian Flux are well worth a ring..

21 years old with City E 998 modified to MG metro 1293 with twin carbs, 2 years no claims, £680 a year!


I only have 2 years because I was on my parents policy when it was still allowed!

[holmesy]

adrian flux wanted 2600 fully comp for mine with their mini specialist company and that was with TMF+ discount!!

i feel that same pain, im being quoted 2500+ !!!! iv resorted to waiting until im 18 so its a little cheeper. even then im still expecting to pay a good 2300 or more! its a joke. how do some of you guys insure your mini @ 17 for less than £2000?

Not sure if this is the reason, but location can be a big factor. When I was 17 my insurance on a modified 2litre capri was cheaper than my mates 1300escort because he lived in a 'rough' area. Then when I lived in Cov as a student mine shot up because that bit of Cov was notorious for car crime. I moved 2 miles and it nearly halved!
