Go on www.greenlightinsurance.co.uk they were cheaper than HIC when I tried, then give Brentacre a call on 01792 650933 and see if they'll beat it.

Also, if it's standard try Directline and Elephant.

I was insured at 19 with 0ncb for £1700 iirc

If you want a decent quote ALWAYS ring, esp. in your position.

That sounds like a really good deal Jason, they quoted me £1400 with 1 NCB 20years old and no points!

Got all 3 of my cars covered through Adrian Flux, they are brokers but all the quotes they came back to me with where all cheaper than any i found on sites like confused and money supermarket. Its saved me loads of money and time. Got to be worth a look

NCB for named drivers are often not always recognised by other insurance companies unless they happen to be part of the same group ie. Admiral/Elephant.

I personally couldn't justify spending £2000 on insurance!

Sorry to hear that mate, although as somebody else said - you should never buy a car without checking the insurance.
