Insurance whilst on a provisional is mega cheap. I wanted to get insured on my mums car and on a provisional it was 2,500GBP but on a full UK license it was 10,000GBP!!!

Go on GoCompare websites, then when you find a decent one call the top two cheapest quotes and have them battle out for a decent price. 3k for a 1L is far too much.

Of course its going to Sky Rocket - My insurance on an inbetweeners car whilst I was learning was 500 - soon as I passed my test there was an increase of 2,200

Axe wrote Insurance for teenagers, specifically male teenagers is really high once you get your full license until the age of 22-25 because males around that age are more likely to get into an accident.

I put my car into a ditch but my insurance company doesn't need to know that! There was no damage.

My friend has insurance for 1.5k on a 1.2 and he is own his own insurance (Just turned 17)

He's with Lyods TSB
