Car insurance for 17 year old?

Can anyone advise the best car insurance company for my 17 year old who passed their test today please?
He has a 60 plate corsa 1.1. Everything is £2200 or higher.
Many thanks

    A different car....seriously...

    Went through similar with my 18-y-o last year, and he's ended up with a Suzuki Wagon R, purely on the insurance front.

    Corsas, Fiestas, 106, 206, etc., etc., were all in the ballpark of what you're finding, the Suzi was "only" £1370. Bought the car, 12 months tax and the insurance and still had change from what just the insurance would have been on all those others.. and don't forget, if you're on his policy as a named driver it lowers the premium - in Mini-Gun#1's case, by £400

    I always get quotes before buying the car, easy enough on the comparison sites :)

    I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple :D
