It's not just age that counts against him actually - they just don't like "first" car insurance and no NCD.

 

Until 2001, I had never had a car insured in my name - I had been riding bikes and although I'd bought cars, they had always been insured in the current g/f's name (they had NCD) and they used them far more than me anyway.

 

When I found myself single I stuck with just a bike for a year (well, 3 bikes actually) but eventually decided that there was some practical benefit to owning a car. However - even for 1.0L Fiesta's I was getting quotes of around £1K (no NCD, no other car in household), even though I was 32!

 

However - there was an upside. After getting these ridiculous quotes I thought : Bollocks to it - if I'm going to pay that much insurance, I'm going to buy a decent car. So I bought the 911.

 

The really strange thing was that - apart from some very silly quotes (£4.5K) and one insurance broker who couldn't stop laughing when I said I wanted to insure a 911 with no NCD - I did get insurance for it that wasn't that much more than the 1.0L fiesta quotes!

 

 

Exactly what I did. Your getting fleeced whatever car you choose. May as well make it fast.
