i've been with quinn for over 3 years now and they were the cheapest when i first started driving. £1300 for a fiat cinquecento sporting, in my second year it went down to £800ish though. So after your first year it will drop considerably and if you avoid any bumps or stupid drivers it will decrease in price each year as well as keeping your no claims bonuses.

I know this isnt what your going to wana hear but your 17 mate and that is life! a 1.4 for your first car is going to rape you, I got a 1.2 fiat punto for my first car and that was 1500 for the first year so you just have to either deal with it or do what everybody else does and drive around in a 1.1 for a few years!

Rubbish isnt it?  imagine what we would all be driving if insurance was cheap?
