Sorry for a bit OT, but lots on here should have experience.

The wife and I are both ~50.
We have Nissan 1.4 Almera, P reg and Nissan 1.6 Primera, L reg.

The Almera (group 6) is ~240, the Primera (group 9)~270 pounds.
Both fully comp with Zurich, including Green Flag. Neither of us have
claims, convictions, points.

Ouch - they're steep premiums for the cars in question. We pay less on
an Alfa 156 at 20 years younger, with my 6 points declared. (Only 3
'active', though).

My boy is about to turn 17 and getting a prov licence.

Zurich are asking for ~1000 to add to either car as a named driver.
Seems totally outrageous to me.
(Very little difference between Primera or Almera)

Sounds about right to me.
