When I got my UK driving insurance, I was in my 30s. By that time, I had been driving for many years elsewhere. Even then, I remember the first year's rather eye-watering. IIRC, it was just under GBP 1000 - the price of a rickety used car in UK. Soon, I discovered that Aviva had a plan for which you can signup: you download the app, and leave that active (data and location) while driving. The app monitors your driving pattern for aound 200 miles. Then it scores you out of 10. I felt smug that I scored 9.7 (IIRC). And, as promised, I got a rather neat discount on my insurance. IIRC, it came under GBP 300. I just wanted to say that alternatives like the above exists. Aviva continued to quote me lowest, until this year. I had to move away because, it happend to me, too, what happens to every loyal customer in the UK: deals popup elsewhere that are available only to new customers. So, exploring switching providers every now and then, is worthwhile.
