One Direction news: Harry Styles hit by huge car insurance bill
One Direction star Harry Styles must have seriously deep pockets after coughing up £15,000 to insure his Range Rover Sport.
It might be a second-hand model he bought from his stepdad but it's a lot better than Simon from The Inbetweeners' yellow bubble car or third party fire and theft on your mum's Fiesta like most 17-year-olds.

Harry won't be getting to drive it much anyway.
He's going to spend most of the next year on tour, recording and waking up in strange girls' bedrooms.
He flew to LA with bandmates Niall, Zayn, Liam and Louis yesterday afternoon.
He won't be allowed to drink or drive out there. No prizes for guessing what he'll be getting up to instead, now his cougar Caroline Flack has been despatched...
