I know it doesn't depends on this only but on lots and lots of other factors.
I just want to know what make, models (examples) are usually cheaper.
Thanks

I would buy a Parker's Guide from your local newsagent - they list typical car groupings for vehicles less than 10 years old (you can get a guide for older vehicles). There are also useful comments about what to watch out for when buying second hand cars - tailored for each. The lower the group the cheaper the premium. (Some Insurers e.g. Chaucer/ Groupama have a different rating system with up to 80 (Eighty) different car groupings.
All things being equal older vehicles are cheaper to insure - the value will probably not matter.
Traditionally L, LS models are a lower group than GL/GLS with Ghia's slightly higher. GT/ GTi *Grand Tourisme* or performance are higher still. This is because of the additional features/ slightly higher values/ theft likelihood.

It doesn't just depend on the make and model of the car it's down to the individual too, i.e age of driver, how many years no claims etc etc.

The lower the insurance group, the lower the cost of insurance. They start from 1 (Chiquecento (or whatever)) and goto 20 for higher end sports cars (Evo, Porsche etc).
Also, insurance groups vary across different insurers so please bear that in mind.

Smaller engined, base models in well known ranges.
Your age and driving history has a major impact on this too, as well as where you live.
