There are two decent insurers here http://simplyinsurancequotes.com/uk/

when getting quoted, specify it is third party NO fire NO theft.

You wont.

You are only 17 years, male. . its always much more expensive for young lads . . You'll just have to wait.

you can put the policy holders name in your dads name an you can be a second driver. This won't help you in the long run as it isn't your own insurance, its better to shop around for the best deal and build your no claims up.

the only sensible way forward is to get a low insurance group car,shop around for the best deal,and build up your no claims bonus for a few years.

I waited til I was 21 to buy my own car, as insurance was affordable then.

You have too many things going against you:
1 --- You have only pass your driving test 3 months ago.
2------ You under 25 years old.
Even if you go on your dads insurance he will be left with a big premire.

If you are the main driver and your Dad goes down as main driver and you as an occasional named second driver, then you are committing fraud and a criminal offence under the Road Traffic Acts by obtaining proof of insurance that would be invalid if the insurer found out what you did - and they will find out if you have an accident and they investigate.
you have to realise that they have seen this scam thousands of times and are ready for it.
They will take the money based on your information and then if you have a claim, and you will be very likely to as a new young driver, they will check up and declare the policy invalid and then you get done for no insurance, fraud and you do not get your car fixed.
If your dad has any sense he will not agree to do it as he could also get into serious and expensive trouble.
if you try to con the insurance companies it will ofter come back and bit you hard where it hurts and for many years to come.

Put it on your dads name and be a named driver,
if he has a good record and has alot of no claims bonus then he can use that to bring down the premium however if it is 2400 now...expect it to still above £1000
i had the same problem with expensive insurance, had an awsum 2.0 litre peugeot 206 bought for me at 17 and then i had to insure it :

autoinsurance.noneto.com - check this one. As I remember they have lowest car insurance rates for teens and young drivers.

Do "Pass Plus" with a driving instructor.
Many companies offer a decent discount so it's worth the money.
I am a named driver on my son's insurance and this attracted a discount for him.
Oddly my insurers will not allow him on my policy.

go confused.com and put yr dad as first name and yours second so you can still drive the car

The cheapest way is to go under your dad's policy. The car goes under his name, and he is the primary driver. you can be listed as a "secondary" which means you drive the car sometimes. Because there is less opportunity for you to drive the car, your less risk and therefor insurance rates go down. it's all about the risk of insuring. You are high risk because your a new driver and don't have experience. It will go down as you get older. also, as said above, shop around.

tell your dad to put it under his name and that he is the primary driver and that you are the secondary driver.. this will make ur insurance a lot cheaper.. Good Luck!

use your dads name as the primary driver and you be the secondary driver and just drive the car as the secondary. and if you get in a wreck tell the insurance company you were borrowing dads car.
