Insurance recommendations for young driver?

Question

Hello again.I've not been contributing for a wile as sadly my 90 had to be sold to makeway for offspring. However, all is not lost because the lad who used to comeoff-roading again is nearly 17 and has just bought a LWB S3.He can't find a 3rd party insurance quoute for less that £1500 though. Cananyone recommend a company that might be cheaper for him or have anysuggestions about reducing the premium. His Mum only has a bike licence sohe can't do the usual trick of going on her insurance.Any help greatly appreciated.Phil MilesNo longer has LR90, Nottingham

In message , Phil Miles  writesShop around. Many insurers just see 2.25 litres and 17 years old, put 2 & 2 together and come up with 5. As already suggested NFU Mutual do understand what a LR is.

Phil Miles tried to scribble ...Dunno about young drivers, but I have 20 points on my licence, only 1 yearsNCB (ex-company car driver) and have just paid £700 for fully comp on a Preg 3 door TDi Discovery with extras ..  The Series 3 I had was only £400... Gotta be worth a try  ... ;) I originally, for the wifes benefit, only disclosed my latest two setsof points (6 total) .. when I disclosed them all there was no change in thelevel of cover, price charged or excess.  When I wanted to lower the excessthe cost of the insurance _did_ sky-rocket .. It may be worth increasing thevoluntary excess (I have £250) to gain a fair bit off the original purchaseprice.  I consider £250 to be reasonable and probably something I could fixanyway .. ;)
