Driver age: 19

Insurance company: elephant.co.uk
Insurance company tel number/website: www.elephant.co.uk

Insurance price: £1700 pay monthly (there or there abouts)

(I think because there has been 3 different cars on this policy, it has gone up due to their being a shorter time for which to spread the cost over - policy started in april)

Scandalous that isnt it! £143 a month i works out as!
