Hi all, i'm Andy, 20 from Chatham, Kent.

Currently driving a 106 GTI but want to get a scooby now, found a few that have caught my eye, but i think i may have to wait until July as of my age, and i haven't been driving a year yet, but in july i will be and will also have 2 years no claims too and be 21 too.

Unless anyone knows of any decent insurer's for scoobies for young people?

Either way, looks like a nice place to be.

Thanks,

Andy

Andy, welcome to Kent Scoobies - without putting a downer on your enthusiasm to drive a scooby, check out potential insurance costs BEFORE shelling out on your car, unless you're willing to pay up regardless of the cost lol Try giving Gary Moulson at Keith Michaels a call - 0845 0138231 or 0845 3373380 - tell him you got the no from the SIDC site

I've tried Keith Michaels already, and said it is pointless quoting me until i'm 25 lol

The cheapest i have found so far is £3,475.40 so far.

My insurance with Admiral ends in July so i know they will try to be competitive and beat any quote as always.

£2000 bang on more or less on a Turbo 2000.

How does this differ from a WRX?

Can i just tell the insurance company this and plead ignorance?

Hello and welcome to SIDC. I pay £151 a month for insurance (22 yr old), but they took into account the 5 years of ownership and license since 2004.

Was thinking of trying Gary Moulson, as i want abit cheaper. But was unaware that you had to be 25+ :rolleyes:

so its just the uk version then?

Could i just plead ignorance and get a jap one and insure that as a 2000 Turbo?
