Il be 17 in november and have just bought a mini to be my first car ive done some mock quotes and so far the best one is around £1.700 for third party, fire and theft. What is the cheapest method and with who?

Thanks, brad

Also forgot to add, what is the best sounding and perfomance exhaust? I want a loud, throaty sound but nothing too over the top. Help?

I would say an RC40, ideally as part of a mild tuning kit.

I had the kit on my racing green and when tuned properly it makes a 998cc very nice to drive. There is a single box version of the rc40 if you want more noise.

But....if you want to keep it insurance friendly then it might be better to stay away from modifications until you have some no claims bonus.

phone a company called footman james. 900 pound on a mini998under classic car insurance . you have to phone them as you cant get an online quote untill your 25.

hope this saves some money.

Try adding some one to the policy eg Mother or Farther. Not as the main driver but as a second driver some times bring the cost down.

I also like the RC40, You can get the system with and with out the center box. I went with the center box and liked the noise level.
