adrian flux are worth a look too. some companies doa bonus accellerator for young drivers too - 10 months premium so you get a years no claims after 10 months instead of 12 - SWMBO did that for a couple of years and it helped out a fair bit.

I've got a c1 myself mate. Good for city driving. You can get a lot of kit in them though!

 

I've got a hilux. Insurance is through my dads company as it's essentially his vehicle but I've got use of it.

 

I tried to insure it myself but no chance!

£2300 was the cheapest I could find. Interestingly NFU were very close to this figure as well. Series 3 on a classic I think might be the only cheaper similar 4x4. But to me I could not see how an insecure 50 mile an hour max speed very old vehicle could be a reliable trouble free work horse for serious work. Suggest think about insurance costs in years 2 to 5 when the no claims kicks in. The Discovery is group 11, but a small/mid van is group 4-5. Sadly even the mid sized van is still £2300 for a 19 year old in the first year. I fact I reckon anything above group 3 results in a leap to £2200 for the 19 year old. BTW, I have not checked out the HiJet 4x4 mini truck insurance yet, it might be in the order of £1600 and maybe similar probably to a Fiesta van insurance. I think the only answer is to bite the bullet and work harder to pay off the insurance!, or better still team up with a buddy who is a few years older and has a big truck (and keep the aygo).

Good luck
