Anythings possibler if you show them the wedge. Try bell, i could get insurance on vr's at that age with no no claims and a fault accident, thats not to say it was under a grand though.

I got a quote not long ago for a vr and it was about 1600. Get on confused.com cause im only 20 as well.
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

just be carefull of online insurance quotes (and especially price comparison websites) as they will produce a quote with the most minimal of details and when you get the real quote (with all the the other info that is requested)
i got caught out with confused.con (and there minimal info requirement) and thats why i dont have a vr6..... :cry:
