Well Ive just sorted out my insurance.

Im 23 and have a 0 NCB so I had no idea how expensive it was going to be.

Quotes ranged from the stupidly expensive (£800+!!!!) to the suprisingly cheap!

Caution: A lot of companies only insure your mini for its market value which could be very low so I made sure that I could get an argeed value of £1500.


The best quote I got for fully comp insurance with my brother as a named driver (for the Job) was......

£301.18 with an excess of £200 and 35 day Europe cover (ideal for the job!!)

An the mini will be valued by The Britsh Mini Club so will be an Agreed Value!! Nice.

And when I pass my Advanced driving I will get 10% off!!!!!

It was with Footman James: www.footmanjames.co.uk

Oh and it includes UK/Europe Roadside Assistance!
