www.elephant.co.uk but if you've got a Focus RS already I'd probably stick with the same company mate 
I've been surprised by the insurance on the Clio, despite the RS being worth substantially more money and being a fair bit quicker, the Clio is proving to be the more expensive car to insure! I'm with Admiral at the moment (under my dads name, both of us use the car) and they wanted £1200 for the RS, and £1500 for the Clio.
Putting the details into Bell as I type.

Admiral were the cheapest on Confused, but I'm sure I can find it cheaper than that. I'll give Elephant a go as well.
To be fair, it probably is at more risk than an RS - the price difference means more younger people will be able to afford the Clio.
Apologies for putting this in the wrong section btw.

how come you are changing from the FRS to the 172?
I found the FRS was cheaper to insure as well which is strange as the FRS is faster and is worth more. There is a cool vid on here of a FRS v 182, there is nothing in it at all until licencse losing speed and then the FRS destroys it
Bell, Admiral and Elephant are all owned by the same company

Adrian Flux, they beat my Bell qoute by £100, awesome insurance company and the staff are real friendly, and actually know what they are talking about. www.adrianflux.co.uk
I'm investing quite a bit of money into training for my career, so need all the money I can get!
I got an RS last August after much saving and doing quite well on my old car.
I'm quite looking forward to a 172 actually, since it's much more understated than the RS. Would be interested to see that video, but I'm surprised the Clio could keep up.

im 18, looking at a 172 (non cup) no no claims, car on driveway, policy in my name with dad as named and with admiral, bell and elephant im getting quoted around £4300 and im in a low risk area?
ive got a 1.2 16v at the moment and i'm paying £1900 on that for just myself.
I dont understand what i'm doing wrong for other 18 year olds to be getting such lower quotes ont the same car or cups?

I cant see you getting it under 2.5k or even 3 maybe to be honest fully comp Flamered. No NCB is gonna put the price up loads. 20 with 2years NCB and I couldnt find it cheaper than 1700ish comprehensive. 172s cost a fortune to insure cos of how many get written off. I can insure an M3 fire and theft for the same price as a 172 fire and theft! Best waiting till you've got some no claims behind you.

Don't think Norwich will insure under 21 on it, jus tried an online quote and it wouldn't have it
I rang my current insurer (Natwest which I think is UK Insurance or something?) and they would insure under 21 either :dapprove:
I was expecting around 3-3.5K but the few that will insure me want a grand more..bastid insurance
(anyone want to buy a 1.2 16v dynamique lol?)
