Re: need advice on a purchase

right, so i just did a little more shopping around for insurance. and I found a company willing to insure me on one of these cars, with ME AS THE MAIN DRIVER. What a big difference it makes adding older females as named drivers to your policy. It liternally cut the price in half. So if the quotes ar...

Re: need advice on a purchase

I know the reason behind why insurance companies make it so expensive. i just think its unfair discrimination. How can they call me a big risk, just because other people my age drive like fools.

Re: need advice on a purchase

I dont like to argue, but if i put insurance with me as the main driver, even the cheapest, slowest, oldest car will cost me above £2000 a year. I would have to be mad to pay that amount. Ive been doing quotes online for a couple of months and nothing has changed. Besides my dad doesnt have his own ...

Re: need advice on a purchase

Thanks for your advice. But I would personally like a classy looking car. In my opinion Audis look nicer than Seats. I also prefer the looks of saloons vs hatchbacks. its probably just a personal thing. As for insurance, for the first year or so the policy will be put under my dads name, with me as ...

Re: Traffic Jams

good find Johnf514. what i really hate is when people keep slowing or stopping at the side of the road to see an accident. i mean its not even your business after all. we need to educate these drivers.

Re: need advice on a purchase

thanks for the replies. when i said these are the largest engines i can get insured on, i have actually tried contacting the insurance companies and so far all of them have declined to insure me on anything faster. also the audi is FWD, not a quattro. Also im not looking for the fastest car, but ide...
