Can anyone explain to me Why diesel insurance is always far cheaper then petrol? An example..theres a 1.9 derv polo in my local area for sale...it said cheap insurance? What's the crack with that?

would it still be cheap for peoples aged 17-upwards like?

(and on other derv cars too)

I thought in general, Diesel cars are usually at least 1 insurance group higher than a standard petrol one!

Its not cheaper in general.
Because the advert says cheap insurance that doesn't mean the car is cheaper to insure than the equivalent petrol.

Because diesels are not associated with 'boy racers'.
