Does anybody know of any providers / websites which could offer me (24yr old female, 6 years driving licence, 6 years no claims) cheap car insurance on a hyundai i20 1.4 engine?

Would appreciate any help as these comparison websites are driving me crazy!

    Why? They've simplified the process beyond all recognition.

    I use confused.com and its very easy to use in my opinion even though their TV adverts bug the crap out of me.

    Go to the cashback sites. I got £70 off my RAC renewal on the Panda. Initial quote was £168 (not the cheapest) but with the cash back a no brainer.

    RAC, Morethan, Zurich (plus others I guess) are all offering around £70 on Quidco.

    thanks for the comments.

    I define "cheap" as around the £400 mark. The best quote i've got so far is £498.75 with legal protection and no claims protection or £439.95 without no claims protection.

    Think prices are on the up. Visited my mother today and she was moaning like hell about her renewal quote. Mind you my nieces and nephews tell me she is now horrific as driver in her dotage!

    Comprehensive? If so, that's not too bad for a 24 year old, even with full no claims bonus.

    Its still higher than I would ideally like to pay.

    I've tried the usual comparison sites and tried to haggle them down on the phone but can't seem to get them to budge. Anybody got any tips? :-(

    Add another low-risk driver to the policy.
