At 17, I suspect the insurance might be similar cost to the car.

 

haha yes i think it might, i have been trying to get an insurance quote on a 1.3 civic and haha 1,500 little bit expensive :( they are just trying to get us younger people off the road. i was first taught to drive by a rally instructor. i could handbrake turn a car before i could spell lol.

Chap I was paying £985 fully comp on a Mini at 18, I then paid £1450 TPF&T for a UK spec MR2 GT (NA) just before my 19th birthday. At 21 I got my Supra SZ and that cost me 890 fully comp limited milage and garaged. Seriously at 17 no company will touch you as even in a golf car they deem you to be high risk, and to jump into a high powered rwd car from the go the insurance company will ever have kittens or try to rip you off big time to make sure they have their money.

ok then, if not a supra what car can i have thats a rwd and cheap insurance, i do not like spining the front wheels, it feels crap. RWD all the way :p please advise

 

Unfortunatly you just got to hang it out with a small car before you knock it up a gear. If you can afford it things like the Seat Ibeza TDI (170bhp and a shedload of tourque) might be an option from the go those things would stick to a NA supra due to being lighter and the low down grunt, plus its a diesle engine so good MPG and insurance.
