Best/cheapest car insurance site?

I'm a 23 year old male who has held a completely clean full license for 1 year/4 months, had no accidents or claims or anything of the sort. I had initially been paying £90 a month with hastings smartmiles when I had my clio last year, however the timing belt went on it so I had to get rid and wasn't in the position to buy another car right away at the time, so I had to cancel the policy and pay charges etc.

I've recently showed interest in buying a ford focus zetec 2004 and did a quote search on a comparison site, which, to my disbelief came back with results that are at an astonishing £3000-£7000 a year!

W T F?!

There's no way in HELL I can afford that kind of money. Someone please tell me it has to be wrong and it's a case of bad website choices on the comparison sites behalf…

For me, in my situation now, it turned out to be State Farm. When I had the business open and needed commercial coverage, my best fit was Progressive.

In your current situation you aren't going to find much under what you have already found, male, under age 25, canceled policy and currently no insurance = high risk. Just the nature of the beast.

£3,000 is about right for that car and your level of experience. I would be surprised if you can find anything much cheaper.

You have little experience so you will not get cheap insurance on the majority of cars and there are no magic websites for cheapo insurance for you or anyone else

If that's the price then that's the price no such thing as cheap insurance companies, it's all relative to personal information you provide.
