Car Insurance from Best Advice UK

Has anyone had any experience of car insurance from a company called Best Advice UK.

I am looking for insurance for my 17 year old son and the best quote they have come up with is £2598.00 from Aviva. Aviva are quoting me over £4600.00 if I go direct to them. How can Best Advice do it so cheap.

i know it is a lot of money but for a 17 year old on a provisional licence it is cheap.

17 yo on a provisional should be fair bit cheaper than that on the basis that they are only allowed out with "someone responsible". It normally leaps up when they pass their test and are allowed out on their own.

Depends what car he is going to drive, my son was quoted silly money for insurance, he then bought an old 85' Mini and got it down to £600 per year on classic car insurance.

Got a quote for when daughter starts driving, 17y/o provisional licence on a £3000 Fiat Punto Active Sport and was coming out at about £600

What car is it on? Sounds alot of money, 2k is normally ball park for a 17year old boy on a decentish car.

Its a Mitsubishi Colt 1.3cz2.

You can get large variations through Broker Scheme to what can be obtained direct.

£2700 seems resonable to me for a 17 year old boy on a Colt depending on Post Code Etc.
