   If you want an accurate quote then you'll need to enter an address I'm affraid.The quote will take the postcode into account and this can impact the premium significantly.You could always enter some details close to yours but not exact. Some companies will hound you as soon as you get a quote, especially off the price comparison websites.I agree with the set aside a day for quotes. The price comparison websites make it a bit easier, but not all companies are listed on them and any quote given needs to be taken with a pinch of salt as whenever I've used them the premium has gone up when I finalise the quote for some aspect that the price comparison website doesn't take into account.Some of the best companies aren't listed so you need to go to them directly.I'd imagine ￡1000 to ￡1500 a year for a standard Clio or Corsa with say a 1.0 or 1.2 engine.Higher spec or any modifications would put the price up significantly.

   depends on age…..i am a young driver under 25, in recent years these have been my average and best quotes, confused.com usually gives you the better ones, but shopping around and speaking to people on the phone can occasinally find the best quotes, oh, and set a whole day aside just to find a good quote!, it ususally takes that long!17-18 – ￡1200 -100019-21 – ￡1200- 80022-23 – ￡800- 60024-25 -￡600- 450 – (for men), women will be slightly cheaper!

   My 21 year old son has a corsa and pays ￡1200 that is with him as main driver and me as a named driver.On the web sites you go to just enter another address with your post code and alter your date of birth by a day or two

   ￡1100 +Don't waste your money on anything less than fully comp, its not worth it if and when they have a crash. Source(s): Used to work for one of the UK's biggest insurer.
