1511.98 is good for your age mate! Failing that try get a parent to insure it and add you as a 2nd driver. Not sure if this is a cheaper option anymore but its worth a try!

quinn is a good one, also i have found out that putting a parent on it and you as second makes it really cheap, and you still build you no claims

Insuance sucks, My advise is drive a slow car for 2 years and then after you've got some experience and no claims under your belt Insurance companies like you and will let you have faster cars for less moneys
Almost as bad as tax IMO
