Special SEAT could up cost of young driver car insurance for winnerAn increasing number of 17 to 25-year-olds say they're feeling the pinch of car prices, rising fuel costs and young driver car insurance - but for a student teacher in Spain, auto manufacturer SEAT has provided a little welcome relief. The 21-year-old was overjoyed to win what must have been her dream car - a one-off Leon Cupra customised by her song and dance idol, Shakira - as part of a fund-raising event for the Pies Descalzsos (or Bare Feet) Foundation, which raises money for displaced children in Colombia. Pies Descalzsos is Colombian-born Shakira's favourite charity, and SEAT got involved when they sponsored the singer's recent European Tour. The prize Cupra, renamed 'Leon Pies Descalzsos' in her honour, was transformed with Shakira's own choice of paintwork and interior decoration - making it an instant collector's item. "I never expected to win the car," said the woman, one of 89,227 people to have entered the competition. "I simply wanted to help the cause, being a bit Shakira fan." "I've no idea how much Shakira's customisations will affect young driver car insurance quotes for this vehicle - but I wouldn't have thought the winning lady will mind shelling out a few pounds more on motor insurance for this special car," said a spokesman for Hoot Car Insurance Services.
