That's just the norm these days I'm afraid. I turn 22 on Wednesday but my insurance hs significantly dropped over the years. I've had 5 different cars, and there seems to be no logic in how they price the quotes.
2000 citron saxo vtr £1800 (£600 on provisional)
2002 Astra coupe se2 Bertone £1500
2008 Astra 1.9 cdti 3dr xp with CRTD box 213bhp £1300
2008 BMW e92 coupe 320 £1200
2011 Mini Cooper S £600
That's all with admiral insurance and my mother as a named driver. Admiral/Bell/elephant are all the same company but usually offer totally different quotes.
I would just try as many places as possible, and don't underestimate how much advanced driving lessons can reduce car insurance for youngsters. Often between 25-30% according to admiral!
Sadly, 17 year old males are just not what insurance companies want to take their chances on.
I can drive a Porsche cayman, 335i or an M3 all for less than What I paid for my 2002 Astra yet some would argue I'm no more mature than back then!!. My mrs who has just passed her test and is also 21 can drive the mini cooper s for ~£350 a year. It's criminal....it really is!!
