Had a promotion at work and can afford to get an audi TT, which ive been saving for.
i am just having trouble getting insurance, im 20 with a years no claims and no points or convictions.
Parents have already said i can go on theres for 8 months untill im 21. Are theres any companys that are more lenient towards age?

Nope, cars too fast for a 'young driver' you'll be paying over £1.5k i'd say.
Just phone people around, no convictions and one years NCB is a bonus. The AA and Chruchill have done me well recently so try them

Tesco used to be, cracking down now. You may find it dificult to find a friendly insurer. Your best phoning them all, your circumstances may go in your favour.

Greenlight.
Was 21 with 1 years no claims when I insured my ITR with them. Was just under 1k, cheapest quote by far.

WOW, that was fast, thanks guys, im with tesco on my lupo Gti and it costs me £700 which i thought was good, but theyve gone really strict and if i wasnt already insured on my lupo they would have refused this year and say 25 for TT, which imo is silly.
im willing to pay up to 2 grand, will give green light a crack now

Just save up, something to look forward too Although Adrian Flux will probably do it for you. Though you'll have to put up with thier rude staff on the phone and it will cost ya.

i'll try, but all his other cars were insured with adrian flux, so chances are hes stayed with them, so that might be worth trying...

Cool, ive done loads of quotes and has worked 2-300 pounds cheaper for the 225 than the 180
