Many things can impact the cost of young driver insurance and one of the first places to look at is the car itself.
Insurers place cars into individual insurance groups from 1 to 50. Typically, if the car is in group 1 it will be amongst the cheapest to insure and 50 will be the most expensive. Cars are rated on the following factors:
How quickly the car accelerates and its top speed
The value of the car as new
The security features the car has
How much it will cost and how long it will take to fix if it is broken
How much the individual parts cost
