    I don't know why they aren't at least giving you a big quote, but no quote at all?
    I had 5 months driving experience on a provisional and the same 5 months of insurance in my own name on a Polo and switched to a 193bhp 2.8 litre car for an additional €700. Same age as you and all. Quinn are the way to go for drivers with little to no experience.

    If they still aren't quoting you, i'd go the route I did and get yourself a reliable heap for six months and then get the car you want.

    EDIT: I was 24 at the time.

    Once you are an existing customer your company has to quote you for any car you wish to change to (they may restrict cover e.g third party only)

    Pedro K id advice you to do your insurance exams (CPD points!!) esp if you dont understand what insurable interest means.
    Don't think AXA will be too happy that 1 of their employee's is giving out (unintentially) misleading information on insurance.
    Doesn't fill one with confidence about knowledge of AXA staff regarding car insurance. :o

    I still got a quote from them for the 2.8 litre before I was a customer. The €700 was to bring it up to that original quote from the Polo.

    I don't think I mentioned at any stage which company I worked for? :confused:

    Does the basic principle of insurable interest not mean you have to suffer a loss as a result of the incident you're insuring against??

    I agree with most of the posts, that car is to powerful for you.

    New drivers should really be limited for the 1st and 2nd years driving.
