    If you ask me, you're doing well already, most times for someone you're age its over 2000, is it your own insurance or are you named?

    My insurance on my own name was 1900 the first time, sure ring a few brokers and whatnot and if they cant get any lower go with that one

    If you go into axa and say you're a student, which I presume you are, they might get it lower, that's whats I'm on, but they look for proof of this I think

    Well like I said, if you ring around again and get even a hundred lower go with it, bit as far as I can see, you're doing extremely well with 1700

    The brother is in the same boat, I'm selling him my car as soon as he gets a decent quote from someone, but it's looking like he'l need his full license first
