im 20 and im getting inpatient waiting for the right time to get a gti, and no where seems to be capable of getting me a quote at the moment, had anyone insured a gti at 20? what sort of price am i looking at? should i try and hold on until im 21 with 2 years no claims?
and lastly is there ever a point where you say" right ,i have a fast enuf car now" and dont need a faster one? :undecided:

Hi, I'm 20 aswell, I have TPFT insurance with elephant on my 8v GTI, and it costs £725 for the 10 month Bonus Accelerator, which is pretty reasonable, oh thats with 0 ncb too.
-
The days of decent insurance quotes seem to be long gone, I had my first valver at the age of 19 and was paying £500 odd tpft
-
I'll agree with stevie, elephant do seem to be reasonable. I had quotes of £400 for a second runabout last winter and got it through elephant for £130 in the end!!! I think it does have something to do with the fact that you're only getting 10months insurance though.

Im 19 i have a golf gti 16v i have 0 yes 0 no claims, and it costs me £930 tpft with mods declared, lowered suspension and full scorpion system, its worth declaring them coz they only charged £32.50 extra
-
I am 19 and on my dads insurance third party fire and theft for my valver, and i pay a silly amounty, and thats without my 3 points and claim going on!
-
renewal for 1.6 driver - 3PFT - £330, was 550 last year! (with one outstanding claim declared, but gotta chancge comps.. Direct line won't insure me with alloys
-
^^^ thats a bit silly! i went on to confused.com and for my valver no one would touch me with my 3 points and a claim! buggers!!
-
had my first valver at 18 :cool: won't say how much that was to insure, but when 19 cost £900 fully comp. :cool:
-
i had my first at 18 aswell, but that was earlier this year! onto my second valver and 4th car in 1 year and 8 months and am about to purchase my 5th (scirocco off ebay), going to collect it next weekend
-
just a note on the 10 month "bonus accelerator", in that no other insurance company will accept it as one years no claims! I found out to my loss in my ealry driving years!
I'd suggest swapping to a full plicy before you leave elephant!
Oh I was paying £800ish at 21 with no NCB fully comp on a 1990 valver!
that too many years ago now though!
-
im 19 and have 1yr no claims and a crash and adrian flux quoted me 1100 with mods but mine is kept securly in garage with alarm and baseball bat! :wink:
-
Just got my first Mk2 GTi 8v and has cost me £240 TPFT with elephant, it was the cheapest by about £200, what makes it worse is im 28 so expected it to be less still. Oh well being as i'm paying the insurance, i'm just gonna have to drive it more :cool:
