Carl, that theory doesn't work for me.
For instance you're suggesting a 17 year old with a brand new, tuned Subaru Imprezza should pay £1000, the same as another 17 year old who's got a 15 year old Rover 220Di. Doesn't make sense to me.
If girls are less risk, their premiums should be less.
True, but if the Law worked, which it doesn't, then Young new drivers should only be allowed to drive certain CC Vehicles, in the same manner as Motorcycles. I often wondered why, you can only ride a 50cc Motorcycle at 17 but if you pass a Car test, you can, if you can afford it, drive a Lambo? Totally Illogical.
Also ref the Quote

There is a big difference between £560 and £3000 (£3000 being quite the norm for some Young Male drivers)
