Tubs Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 As has been said before, add a woman to the policy and it will reduce the premium. When I added my wife to the policy I got a 20% reduction. The other thing I don't understand is parents who buy their children cheap old cars. Whether they are boys or girls they are more likely to crash at this time in their life than at any other, yet we put them in the most dangerous cars. My brother put his kids through private education £15-20K a year then buys them a £1,500 Ford Ka that only has a drivers airbag. My wife works with a girl who lost her son when the metro they were in crashed(the driver lost control in the wet and hit a tree). The metro didn't have seat belts in the back so the lad got thrown out the back window and died. Good luck finding a suitable car. Tubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Loudon - Sponsorship Liaison Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 There's plenty of cars over 15 years old that would qualify that arent too shabby for a 17 year old. Fiat 126, Daewoo Matiz, Fiat Cinqicento... If you go real classic and get something like Moggy Minor, older Mini etc then they will be tax free as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
