anyone know of a good but low cost insurance company. Question

my son is just 16, and of course wants a scooter on the road.

tried the usual companies, around £400, tpft,

id like him to start with his own policy rather than go on mine or his dads so he can build up his no claims bonus ( hopefully!)

Cost me around £400 TPFT for my Aprilia RS50, but I do store the bike in a ghetto, literally. Rolling Eyes.

Ring up, try and haggle!

MCE insurance was the company I used when I started on the road bikes and a mate in work went on to them with his scooter. Try them but watch the excess...

At that age the absolute minimum xs for fully comp has to be £250 (young drivers xs). Then usually a compulsary on top of that.

Laughing thanks for that ste! guess the answer there is read before you write Embarassed

and yep it is diff for everyone, i was actually aiming my question at the youngsters, sim situation as my lad, just 16, high risk as a new rider and so on just to get an average as to prices and best in their experience of companies, ive been with top companies who are actually pretty poo when it comes down to it.

cheers, debi.

I've used www.thebikeinsurer.co.uk to get quotes. So far I've got the best prices on there, much better than the other comparison sites. Might be worth a look if you're trying to get a lower quote. Otherwise ring up the companies and play them off against each other until you get a quote you're happy with. Takes an afternoon of numerous phonecalls, but it's usually worth it.
