Help car insurance first time driver

Matt1982

Hi All

I passed my test last week and now looking for insurance quotes.

I am a 29 yr old male and will be driving a 2004 renault megane dynamique vvt, 1598cc petrol, 5DF, manual car.

I have been on various price comparsion sites on Admiral is coming up the best.

I going to pay the insurance in one lump sum to keep the price down.

Does anyone know of anyone who could perhaps be cheaper than Admiral?

Thanks

Give a tesco a try , Go onto ther site directly . If you have a tesco club card they knock quite a large sum off your premium .

Excellent that did help, thanks alot.

One further question though my dad keeps saying to me though cost of insurance is important if do have an accident it helps having a good insurance comapny for service.

Anyone got any feedback on Tesco before i take the plunge?

thanks

The very cheapest insurers have the strictest terms and conditions and the most woefully understaffed claims departments, which can be stressful in the event of a claim. So if you can get a policy with a more upmarket brand for a few quid extra it's probably worth it - the brand has more to lose from bad PR so they have more forigiving claims people.

No idea what Tesco are like - I think they're basically a front for RBS whose insurance arm is pretty decent as far as these things go.
