    Probably one of the highest insurace rated cars.

    Honda oh says insurance oh civic you say cha Ching ......

    Get a 1litre to start with then get a year or two then move on to bigger and better.

    A lot now won't insure 1st time to anyone with older cars even if you have driven for 20 years.

    I paid €3500 on a micra worth €1900 third party only.

    It's discussed daily here at this stage but there is no "cheap" insurance company for everyone. A cheap insurance company for me could be the most expensive for you. Insurance really is tailored specifically towards an individual as well as the car being insured.

    1500 is probably a very decent price for a first time provisional licence driver (if you're based in a big city) Most of the provisional licence drivers I know in Dublin are paying well over 2000, and that's already their second or third year driving...

    Very, very slim chance you'll get cheaper than that, especially for a civic. Try First Ireland and Asgard.
