eXceed Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Picking up my brand new 370Z next Saturday and called around all the usuals. Unfortunately being 23 it's been a nightmare trying to get insurance at a reasonable cost with most of the specialists flat out telling me they wouldn't be able to insure me. In the end Admiral turned out being the cheapest at £1100 (including my previous conviction history *cough*SP30's*cough*). Bit of a no-brainer!

Pete87 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I would say that's quite a good price, last yeah I paid £2300 for my 350z with mods declared and I was 24 with 4 years no claims. Most company's won't touch you till your 25. You could try the insurance company's on here tho before buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I paid £450 for my insurance with sky for my 370z and I am only 24 and I have 1 speeding offence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flex Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) You're all too young to own these cars. I could never afford one at that age, sigh. Good on you all though Edited April 5, 2013 by flexib 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXceed Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 Hard work and plenty of graft needed (not to say that you don't work hard or graft flexib!!). That's a damn good price Jay, especially at your age. I've got two SP30s, was happy to go ahead with Admiral since I'd been with them beforehand.

Jay Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Lol, I know its hard to believe but sky was by far the cheapest. I live in a good area so I guess that helped out a fair bit.

Oh thats with my fiancée on the insurance aswell and the zed is always garaged at night. Seriously people try sky! Thats with my mods declared aswell I was always led to believe that keeping it garaged made your insurance slightly more expensive? Reason being in a garage it gives the thief more of a opportunity at getting into the vehicle. I maybe be wrong but worth asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXceed Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) The best colour of course EDIT - This is with the wife on the policy who is 25, car is kept garaged during the day and night in a locked compound. Live in a very safe area as well (used to leave my laptop on the seat of my DC5 around town). Edited April 5, 2013 by eXceed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eXceed Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 16 miles on the clock, wasn't really too happy that it had any miles at all on it to be honest being a non demo car. But never owned anything "brand new" before, was originally looking for used but got such a good deal couldn't turn it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flex Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I think a zed or a gtr are the only cars I would buy new (if I had the money), would be nice to be the only owner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
