Im 17, where can I get cheap car insurance?

Im a 17 year old boy and will soon be looking for car insurance. Anyone know where I could get cheap insurance as I'v seen it up to around £6,000 for 1 year on comparision sites. It would be just on a basic say 1.0-1.4 car How much would I be looking at?

1. sure some company will do it cheaper but it will be higher than £1k tho. be a name driver would be better....
2. stick the smallest engine sie you can try Direct Line that who my 17 yr old son uses for a 1L Corsa
3. try elephant.com adverts are rubbish but they do some good deals my brother shares his car with my dad and he is spending £500 a month and when he finally gets to keep the car he will only be paying £1500 to £2000 which aint bad oh and its a 1.4 his car
4. get your mum to insure it and put u on the policy
5. I would recommend looking on car insurance comparison sites such as www.gocompare.com or www.confused.com. Go for your Pass Plus, it may cost to sit it, but you will save a fortune in your car insurance. Try 3rd party fire and theft cover for your first year or so. Drive carefully, don't do daft things with it, and you will save another fortune. Make sure you have a terribly expensive car. Also make sure your car isn't a "sport" model or similar. The performance is exactly the same as it is on the regular models, the only difference is you get alloy wheels and small body kits etc. I am sure you can live without that!! Insurance companies hate young lads driving "sporty" cars so that drives your price up. Ultimately you will be looking at £1000 - £1300 for 3rd party fire and theft, and around £1550 - £2000 for fully comp. Obviously price depends on what car it is, but also on where you live. Good luck!!
6. you may find that it is best for you to become a named driver under your parent's policy. some insurers do give no claim bonus for any named driver.

8. When i got my first car at 17 i was just under £1000 a year. That was for 3rd party insurance on a 1.1 h reg fiesta! Cheap insurance is non existant at 17 even now! The best you can do is shop around for the cheapest deal!
9. Nowhere. It'll start falling rapidly when You get some NCB.
10. Everyone wants the cheapest auto insurance. Everyone is constantly looking comparing this auto insurance provider with this one. It's almost like a parlor game, isn't it. I've done it too. If you've ever gotten a speeding ticket or have a young teenager itching to drive that you've just added to your policy or if you've been involved in an accident, it can get more and more expensive, can't it? Auto insurance is too expensive. You're not alone. it's true for almost every American family.You may get your queires answered here, http://www.best-autoinsurance.we.bs/ The problem for discounts, however, is quality. Many ask is, "Is this cheap auto insurance worth buying? What kind of coverage do I have to sacrifice for a cheaper premium?" What is a small bi-yearly or yearly or monthly bill can become astonishingly high if you cheat on your deductible coverage or coverage amount. You need to therefore really search the different companies for the best, most comprehensive policy. Hope is here. There are good companies out there.
11. Its not going to be cheap, at least £1000.00 I should think. My daughter got it for £700.00 5 years ago, when we looked into it for my son 2 years ago it was into 4 figures. Some will tell you to go as a named driver on a policy taken out by your parent. This may work out a little cheaper but only a little. Insurance companies aren't stupid and as soon as a 17 year old goes onto a policy they will change the costs drastically. Its also a good idea to get your own insurance as you will start to get No Claims Bonus after 1 year and that really does bring costs down, plus you have a bargaining tool on the comparative sites. To all young drivers - just take it easy at first - you may think its a piece of cake but the statistics are really bad, especially for boys - why do you think the insurance companies charge so much?
12. I would like to suggest to try to get as much information as you could before making up your mind,here http://www.AutoInsuranceFree.info/free-auto-insurance.htm is a very resourceful one.
