Young driver insurance

[Earls Hall Blue]

Long story short, but I need to get my 19 y/o daughter out driving again. She's failed a few tests & her confidence was knocked a little, but it seem's a terrible waste of all the time & money invested so far if she gives up now. Myself & her instructor both believe all she needs is practice hours on the road to gain a little more confidence as she fails on a single daft thing.

She learnt to drive in a new model Fiesta & over the next week both myself & the missus are getting one of these. I did a multi-car quote with Admiral for me & missus to each drive each others & because I have higher NCB, my daughter to drive mine, £880, which I think is very good, and will allow her to get those practice hours in.

Anyone have any tips or experience of young / learner driver insurance?

John, speak to Alan on the Trust committee, it's his job to find stuff like this.

You should be able to get her insured third party a lot cheaper!

Try Direct Line. I just passed my test, was much cheaper to use my parents car! They're also quite cheap for my insurance as a new driver!

In 1995 I called hundreds of companys and Halifax where by far the cheapest. Hope this helps.

Strangely, when I was looking around to insure my daughter Fully Comp was more often than not the cheaper option.

My other halfs nephew just found his cheapest insurance with http://www.drivelikeagirl.com/. You have to have a black box thing fitted so also you have to drive sensibly to keep it cheap.

Out of interest can these black boxes detect if you have been doing donuts in a supermarket car park at 11:30pm?

When I passed my test last year, I went on the family multi-car insurance at Admiral and it was £880-ish too. Would possibly be lower with one of those black boxes, but I didn't know about it at the time.

It has a GPS tracker so quite possibly! Unless they think you're on a roundabout.

Try Admiral, just got mine, fully comp, breakdown cover, windscreen cover and other little bits that I can't quite remember, £800 on a 1.4

I'm on a family car insurance. It's not my car and I pay between £20-£30 a month. It's a small engine car and I am mid 20's.

when getting quotes also get one for after she has passed her test. At this point thre can be a HUGE jump with some companies

Diamond all the way,10 month policy which racks up NCB very quickly resulting in me driving group 12 car fully comp for under 600 which at my age is not bad.
