Young Marmalade

Does anybody know if there are any other companies offering a similar solution? I've done a fair bit of research on them and they're really not that cheap.

The headline figures are great, but their cars are overpriced and who wants to pay for their first years insurance over 3/4/5 years?

I got a finance quote on a car and an insurance quote from Elephant and there really wasn't much in it.

ALso, their APRs are high for asset backed finance at 14odd%.

    I've always thought as much. I think a young driver could just get a conventional car finance deal of some kind with a dealer providing they have a guarantor, then pay the insurance monthly as you say.
