Planning to trick my insurance company
My car insurance is £1380 a year if I pay in a lump sum and £1950 if I pay monthly (I'm 20 and have had a recent accident). However, my insurance company (Elephant) say that I can pay monthly for a while before paying off the rest of the lump sum when I can afford to. If I do this, then I pay £1380 minus the amount I've paid in monthly bills. It follows that if I pay monthly for four or five months before paying off the total, my company will be charging me the lump sum amount, but letting me pay it more or less on my own terms.

thirteen hundred eight quid a year??
That is fucking expensive! My insurance is $900 (exchange rate approx $1.42 to the pound) a year, and that's with a DUI 6 years ago, albeit no accidents, but it's fully comp with a high end company.

Actually, it could be much worse
If I'd tried to get a car when I was seventeen, it would have been almost three thousand.

Yep.
That's about as cheap as it gets.
