: How Old Are You/what model do you drive?
aquabubble Oct 11th, 2005, 11:24 PM Admiral, Elephant and Bell Direct (all part of the same group) will insure you on an S for around £1500 - £3000 in your own name depending on your NCB. I'm 18 paying £2200 with 1 years NCB - with Admiral. My friend Jamie, 17 MCS - named driver under his dad with 6 years NCB £1800/year with Elephant.
I was with Admiral until I got my MCC - they don't insure options (even factory fitted) and as mine totalled to £4k, the risk was too great. Moved to Sainsbury's as soon as I could.
*star-girl* Oct 12th, 2005, 11:35 AM 22 (nearly 23) Cooper :)
Seen as though the discussion's going that way I'll add ins details! 2yrs NCB with Direct Line - £650 p/a, not bad I guess. Hopefully will have company MINI in 3 months time so won't have to insure one at all and will have the choice of BEP One, EB Cooper, Astro Black Cooper Convertible or DS/W MCS to play with! Woo!! :D Sorry. Not to make anyone jealous!

it might be differnt up your way jason.
the quote of 7k was from elephant .i was second driver and mum was first driver with 9 years no claims.
i think its soemthing to do with me living in london.
because a friend of mine which is 21. spent 25k on his s and basiclly aint even driven it properly yet. got one of the first hyper blue cooper s's last september. its a 54 reg hyper blue s fully loaded. and basiclly his insurance has gone up a staggering 500.00 for no reason and hes had no knocks or claims and theres only 1k put on the clock in 13 months hahaha
