Best car with low insurance for a 17 year old driver?
My Grandson will soon be 17 and wants to buy a car (with a great stereo system). Can you please advise me which cars that have the lowest insurance premiums? How can he cut the costs? Is a 'black box' the way to go?

Citroen C1, Peugeot 108, Toyota Aygo. Best no stereo at all for a new driver because he needs to concentrate on his driving and the sounds of other vehicles around him, not music, or he'll almost definitely have a crash.

Good standard specification for a low price, cheap to run and cheap to insure, surprisingly mature driving experience and capable out of town too.
Cheap to run, improved interior quality and refinement over previous C1, available with retractable fabric roof, decent at motorway speeds.
