speaking as a now 21 year old with 3 years no claims bonus, i would be surprised if you could find a reasonable quote for anything other than a cheap 1.6
when i come to getting new insurance for my car i am expecting to be paying £600ish for third party (at 21 and with 4 years ncb)
if you really really want an mx5 for your first car at 17 you will have to start saving now or have very kind parents. for a £2k 1.6 i would expect you to have to pay probably very nearly £2k on third party insurance for the first year!
but these figures are all just guestimates, and i hope you can prove me wrong, as they are amazing cars.

I would think, if in your name, you would be looking at about £1800-2000 third party.
It gets a little better with age. I got my MX5 a few months ago, age 21, with Zero NCB and i'm paying #600 fully comp...
