    paid QD €1000 in 2006 for 1.6 ,98 on 1st provisional. This year €1400 but I had small incident so difficult to say how much exactly. But I understood from insurance guy that price is gone up itself.

    You should also take into account whether these prices are peoples own policies or just as a named driver on a policy in their parents name for example as many young drivers do.

    My own first policy was €3200 fully comp on a 94 Nissan Sunny 1.4 petrol valued at a whopping €600 - on 1st provisional.

    Now less than 2 years later my premium is about 1/3rd of what it was thanks to some NCB and a full license.

    Well, finally got my own quote and bought it!

    Got quoted around €1800 from most of the companies (e.g. Hibernian) but was quoted only €1300 from QD (all TPFT)!

    Ford Fiesta 1.3L, 99D, 28 yo male.

    Seems like QD are the cheapest for first time drivers alright.

    1300 on a 93 fiesta, then 1600 on a rover 200, then 1250 on a 1.4 charade---all on provisional and tpft.
    now 780, fully comp on a 1.5, 03 almera with full license.
