Insurence Quotes
Just got off the fone to Sureterm Direct for a policy on the locost turbo - and was very pleasantly surprised at the premium
21 year old driver, no NCB, 2 litre turbo locost - and with dad on policy as a 2nd driver (god forbid him ever driving it!!!) and i was extremely
pleased to hear the numbers "£557.15p"
which is fantastic considering that is the first quote i have gotten 
now, anyone else who specialises in kitcar insurence i could try?
boom

might give them a ring - know a few people in the XROC who have had a few bad and raw deals with adrian flux when it comes to making a claim - still
gotta be worthwhile ringing them tho

I got quoted recently for my turbo indy.
Fully comp, age 24, 6 points (speedingx2), with the missus (23) as a named driver , 5 k limited miles, Adrian Flux, £325!
Bargain!
The missus loved it when i explained that on asking about putting her on they said she was less of a risk to insure than me!!
Now thinks she's the better driver!
It all went wrong when we gave them the vote!

I was pleasently surprised when adrian flux quoted me around £900 last year with a 2nd driver. Cheaper than my 1.25 fiesta!

Maybe worth a look?

After reading this post, I tried Footman James, I got a quote for a 2.0i book chassis for £233, I am 42, full NCB, no convictions. 4500 miles and a
valuation of £4000. I don't think that is bad
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

By putting your old man on the insurance it should bring it down. It certainly did when I got my policy through sureterm. (Providing he has not got
too many points and only one arm.) I think it is seen that someone else will be driving and hence less risk. I have also done the same on the type R,
brought it down by about £250 and he loves it when I am working away as he gets to take it out.
23 2 year no claims, 2 litre zetec, 6 points, £320 fully comp, limited to 4000 miles. When I changed from the 1300 crossflow to the zetec it only went
up £60!
Sureterm were the best I found after a lot of searching.

Yup, sureterm get my vote, I don't think footman james are too hot if you're young, they refused to insure me on a BEC at age 21.

Insurance
After reading this post I rang Adrian Flux.
I already have a policy with them for my Type 2 VW Camper, am 33 years old and used no NCB against the policy for my Locost. The policy was for just
me to drive (NOT MY MRS!) and was for Fully Comp cover. I specified £4000 agreed value and just 4k5 miles a year.
Was well pleased at £123.50 !
Don't know how you would fare being 'younger' though, good luck.
As I said earlier, didn't use any NCB, policy was termed 'Classic' by A. Flux, however, they are a broker and I am sure if you went
direct to whoever underwrote their quote it would be cheaper still.
But at £123 WHO CARES ????
