Overpriced?

Ha, I keep putting a downer but seriously, get more experience before a T4 or 2.0T. I wouldn't feel happy driving any of them on 1 years experience - That's just me though - It's your money

I'm 21 and pay £700 to insure a T4 so it does get better quickly, just got to get the NCB up and avoid any knocks lol

You may have seen similar things in other posts, but can I suggest bell.co.uk if you don't mind a little black box attached to your car?

I'd not driven for about 4 years, so I was getting quoted about 1.5k for my 2002 2.0 S40. Bell took that down to about £600, and they have a 10 month accelerated NCB thing.

I don't think you're restricted, but they monitor you and give you a rating, talk to Volvo2002 about it as he has one on his 1.8.

I think they only work on lower insurance group cars though, not sure they would cover a 2.0T or higher.

What's your highest quote for a T4 out of interest?

Young driver + little experience + high performance car = high risk!

But yeah, that is rather high lol

Most I got quoted was £3k on a scooby when I was 18 lol
