£270...thats nothing
My 17 year old son has just passed his test.....there is a Y Reg Clio 1.1 for sale down the road .......for me to insure it as the main driver it would cost me £161 a year.
If I want to add my son to the policy as a named driver it goes up to £5,500!!!!!

Ye gods!
Things have changed so much since I was 17... electricity for one thing.
But when I passed my driving test I bought an old van and insured it just 3rd party...not even with fire/theft...to keep the policy as low as possible, while I gained some no claims discounts. I had a series of ex commercial vehicles for 5years till I could afford to step up to a 'car' and a couple more before I could consider full comp insurance.
These days it is so expensive!!!
