Unveiled at the 2008 Greater LA Auto Show, the 370Z is the sixth-generation of the Nissan Z line, and succeeds the popular Nissan 350Z. If you’re aged 41 – 45, you could be looking to pay around £567* to insure this car annually.

The GT-R is the updated Skyline, Nissan's famous sports car – with Nissan dropping the ‘skyline’ tag in 2009. Sitting at the top end of the insurance group bracket, this isn't likely to be the cheapest car to run. Boasting upwards of 471 brake horsepower (bhp), this 3.8l engine sure does pack some punch.

To give an idea of how much the GT-R would cost to insure, ages 36 – 40 would be looking at paying around £1,550* yearly.

Introduced to the UK in 2010, the Nissan Juke is a new breed of crossover. Whereas most crossover cars are a mix of a SUV and hatchback, the Juke is a cross between an SUV and a supermini.

Available in both two and four-wheel-drive, the Juke comes with an array of technology and gadgets as standard, like climate control, cruise control, ABS and multiple airbags. In 2011 it earned five stars from Euro NCAP for safety, which is the highest level that can be awarded.

Nissan released the Note to the British public in 2006. It’s an MPV-style hatchback built for getting the family around the city. Similar to the Renault Modus, with which it shares its underpinnings, the Note is a deceptively spacious vehicle with a family-friendly interior.

The Note tends to sit at the lower end of the typical car insurance group range. This isn't an exhaustive list, but you can use it to gauge where the Note is placed. Drivers aged 46 – 50 could get car insurance for around £548*.

The Primera was in production for a total of 16 years in Nissan's UK Sunderland facility, finishing its run in 2006.

The Nissan X-Trail has been available since 2000 and is now in its third generation.

It might not be ideal for taking up a mountain or across rough terrain, but it could be great for pulling a trailer, or getting your sports equipment across the fields or beach.

Those aged 21 – 25 could pay around £1,228* for their yearly premium, while ages 36 – 40 could be paying close to £635*
