I’m 18 and I have just passed my test about a week ago, and am looking for insurance etc. But the quotes I’m getting are all about £2,500, which I cannot afford at all as I’m a student. I haven’t bought a car yet, as I want to find a good quote first, but the details I have been putting in so far is Vauxhall Corsa 1.0l 3dr age 1999. Surely, this is neither a powerful nor new car, so I don’t understand why I’m getting quotes of 2 and a half grand?! I have tried different cars, as well (renault clios, ford fiestas and polos) but it has made little difference.
I know that the insurance is always going to be high for new young drievrs, but this is really taking the piss, if I’m honest. I have tried about 20-30 different comparison sites and individual company sites, and this is so far the best I’m getting. I’ve been putting in third party cover and social + pleasure travel or whatever it is. Also, that the car will be parked on a driveway over night. I will be 19 in four months, so is there a chance that insurance will have gone down by then, because it wouldn’t be that long to wait. But otherwise, any suggestions, please, are there any details I should change, about the car or the insurance etc. Please help!!
Thanks in advance

I’m an 18 year old female with no prior car accidents or speeding tickets. I have a part time job and I’m going to be starting classes at a local community college soon. Around how much do you think auto insurance would be for 1) a motorcylce and 2) a small sedan
I already know I can get free quotes but I just wanted to see people’s estimates so I can guess around how much this will set me back per month. I know I should be more specific but again I just need educated guesses. Thanks!
