harryjackson Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 21 with my zed. £950 with diamond 1 years No Claims, No points Quote
Grundy Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 All these 23yo or less with under 1k bills. Is this the price they give you all in one go? If so are you paying it monthly or annually? #teamtarmac Quote
Daveyboy11 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 I pay mine annually, but it's only another £100 odd a year if I pay monthly. Quote
HAMLNJ Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 I bought mine when I was 24 costing me £989 fully comp plus other extras. Now I'm 25, it's costing me £487!!! I love being 25, what a bargain! Quote
350ed Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I'm 25 and will be 26 in a few weeks, just got a renewal for £494. The first sub-£500 premium I've had! Just reached the point where road tax (sorry, 'Vehicle licence fund') is more than my insurance. Quote
redzed8 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Bought mine at 24, 3 years no claims with diamond for £380 a year which i was quite happy about. Quote
Grundy Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I'm just curious, as I could (now just renewed my policy) - I'm 23, 6 years no claims, Admiral, mods inc, break down cover - £650 for the year, fully comp. However I pay monthly, which is £90 a month, which comes close to around £1k this year. So I'm interested to see all these people saying they got cheap insurance, have you really though? Or are you paying monthly. 1 Quote
redzed8 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Grundy I paid mine for the year mines standard though. heres a few quotes ive got for the zed and a gtr recently (the gtr was just for the lols but came back cheaper then i thought) Quote
Jp606 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 23, I just paid £435 for my renewal with Elephant. Quote

Or are you paying monthly. It couldn't just be down to the areas you live in could it, because since making this thread, my younger brother has phoned a few of these companies mentioned and couldn't get any where near the prices some of the other 20 - 23 year olds are getting!!! Where talking silly money and he's got 2 years no claims and is 20! Quote
Grundy Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 And it's a 3.5l v6. It's not meant to be cheap. It is mainly down to your area. Along with the standard stuff. #teamtarmac Quote
Daveyboy11 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I found the zed much more insurable than other cars I was looking at the time, far cheaper! 1 Quote
Durk Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I found the zed much more insurable than other cars I was looking at the time, far cheaper! I couldn't get a quote on an S2000 for less than 3.5k Quote
Ebized Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Not the youngest but I am the oldest by a mile. Regards Keith Older than Colin ??? Quote
Ebized Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 We have had a 17 year old driving his mum's UY GT4 on a Wales weekend (and as an aside he had been instrumental in making some excellent upgrades on the car). Car in this pic and (forgot his name) in the check shirt. And to be fair his driving was of a very high standard - both quick and safe. But I believe that was with a one-off insurance arrangement that nowadays may be impossible to get. Quote
coldel Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 My neighbour opposite has a V6 A4 and moved literally three streets away, about 4 minutes walk, and his insurance premium doubled. It is a bit of a farce insurance premiums because they put so much weight on postcode, it only takes a couple of issues with reports of cars being stolen in your postcode to suddenly make the algorithm go mental. Pretty sure insurance premium algorithms were put together in the 80s by a bunch of GCSE students and have been left running to their own devices ever since. I had a 1.1 Polo banger as a first car, insurance was £600 per year annual paid up front, that was back in 1992... Quote
adam_350z Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) Im 23 got mine in dec. £660 odd from admiral with 5 years ncb. Admiral seem to love young drivers with fast cars, have been with them for 4 years now 😃 Edited January 17, 2015 by adam_350z Quote
HassanZ Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 I bought my first Zed when I was 21/22 Quote
HassanZ Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Insurance was around the £800/£900 mark with Admiral also Quote
Mikey Thompson Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) I'm 19, had a Fiesta ST with Admiral which I paid £640 for the year. To transfer the policy over to my 350 it cost £370 for the last 6 months Edited February 22, 2015 by Mikey Thompson 1 Quote
JoKeR Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 I'm 22 paying £2000 in London with Adrian Flux! No points, 3 years no claims too! Was with elephant/admiral previously and had to make two separate non fault claims at different times and experience was shocking to say the least. I would not recommend them at all I have told everyone that. Might be cheaper but you will get done over when it comes to claiming for even a non fault accident! Just my 2p worth lol That's what she 'Zed' :-/ Quote

Their services are shocking. I had to get the ombudsman involved too haha! In the end I had to pay a fee for an engineer because they sent a check for repairs and cancelled any other work that I was booked in for. I would rather pay the extra than go with them again That's what she 'Zed' :-/ Quote
jonty88 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I'm 23 and just got my first Z! Insurance is surprisingly good at just £440 through eSure 1 Quote
lbreen92 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Got my Zed 3 days before my 23rd birthday. Insurance is with Elephant and around £1800 with 3 years no claims and a clean licence. Comparing with some of the others here, I guess that's what having an L postcode does to your premium... 1 Quote
