Ronnie, little tip and trust me on it, do not use insure your motor/van

commercial v direct google serach them cvd insurance, quoted me £1600 ish for me and a 19 year old driver which is on one of my vans. I also got a quote from 4 counties insurance and again, with things explained (water tank fitted that is a mod) was very good quote.

The age is always going to screw down your money, but the earnings should out strip that as is the wage they get is taken into aCCOUNT OF THE EXTRA FUNDS THEY COST.

Have fun seraching

Ian

you either have a bunch of guys that like collecting speeding fine or your getting mugged buy your insurance company, I thought £2100 a year was harsh enough 6750 is a bit harder to swollow unless you have got a lot more vans on the road
