I can't go through every post to see if its already been asked and answered so thought I'd make a new thread.

question..
1. What car/model and year is it (pix)?
2. what are you guys/girls paying a year. fully comp/3rd PFT?
3. what job do you do?
4. do you still live at home?
5. is it your own insurance or on someone elses?


i hope this will make interesting reading.

i always wonder how an 18 year old has a new scoob - am i the only one that wonders whether its mummy and daddy or a fecking huge loan that they will pay off until they're 30.

Not to say there isnt people out there in that age bracket that do it on their own but sheesh. I pay a grand on insurance and i'm 25 with mods declared etc on an older scoob

 

i have just turned 20
silver classic turbo 2000 (full decat induction kit,baileys dv)
£1800 3rd party on my mums insurance (she has max no claims) with zenith
and i do still live at home
im a engineering technican apprentice for network rail

 

well il freely admit that mine is on a 5 yr loan through subaru finance and thats the only way i can afford to purchase the car, insuarance tho is payed off as a lump sum each year by the 'old skool' method of saving up lol

 

ill quite happly admit that i took a loan out for mine over 4 years which also coverd my 1st yr of insurance and next yrs will be done through good old saving up

 

Well, I don't have a newage, a 95 classic instead (which if course is considerably cheaper...) but I'm paying for it myself, including insurance. 24 month loan for the scoob (£4k) and lump sum saving for insurance each year.

 

i would have loved a newage but had to go for the classic coud have stretched the loan to afford a newage but insurance compaines just didnt want to know the only one i could get a half decent quote on was a classic t2000

 

i found quotes were cheaper for me on a newage sti than a RB5 with PPP which i found odd as mine is faster and worth more lol, but hey thats insurace company logic for you!

 

age 29 my 2005 sti type uk £700 fully comp

 

I see that a lot of people are avoiding the 'do you still live with your mother?' question.....

 

You haven't answered it yourself Simon !

 

But Im not 18-25 Andrew!

 

Yep Old Timer, you were born the year Bobby Kennedy was assassinated - just like me.

 

1865? You are very old.....

Or was that Lincoln....

you know the cars worth less than that!! scary!

what NC did/have you?

 

i just turned 20 had it at 19 though
classic uk turbo 2000 with hyperperformance £2700 fully comp
(would of been more but paid it off it full)

people say its too much to pay out but i find its well worth it plus i spent 12k on a saxo including the car waste of money

 

question.. Age 42 later this month
1. WRX with PPP 2003
2. Fully Comp
3. Admiral £600 py 2yeras ncb
4. yes
5. mine

 

are all the insurance ads in the back of magazines for modded cars/young drivers/drivers with points/ actually cheaper than highstreet insurance companies when it comes to scoobs????

 

So then, as question 5 in the original post, whose name are these cars insured under. Yours or parents, and also are all mods declared???

Oh, i am 26, so just over the 18-25 bracket. I am paying £540 fully comp, 1993 WRX (modified - all mods covered like-for-like), live with parents (at the moment), insured in my own name
