I paid £1600 for my first car which had a 1.6 engine in it. God knows what a 3.5 by would have been. Most won't insure you.
Also in a day and age where "kids" are sussposed to be more aware and about technology, you'd think he'd Google car insurance or maybe he'd seen one of the hundreds on TV adverts from compare the market, or go compare or even money supermarket.
This guy just be taking the p. Ban?
