First time insurance for mature driver - 9th Feb 2011 12:02pm
Hi All
I'm due to take my test next month and will be buying a small car as I believe that they will be much cheaper to insure.
I've been on several comparison website and used a ford fiesta as a model to generate a quote. I have to say that I am absolutely horrified by the prices I have been quoted bearing in mind that I am 42 year old lady driver...
Last year I ran the same quote on the same websites and was quoted £368 for third party fire and theft. I put in the same information just one year later to find that it is now cheaper for me to get fully comp insurance at around £1350 per year than third party which works out at £1800+. How can that be right??!
Any advice on good quality cheap insurers and which would be the cheapest cars to insure for a first timer?
