Work out who is the cheaper to be the policy holder, then stick your mate on as a named driver then go halfs on the cost

Yep,Quinn are fly bastards when it comes to this.Many folk(including myself)have been shafted in the past for that trick.
Read the smallprint mate and im willing to place a bet that your not actually insured to drive any car with the owners permission.

For a start you need to have a full E.U licence.Something that most people who live in the UK dont have.

Wrong, I rang up and asked and they told me straight that I was insured to drive other cars, also when I passed my test they told me the day I changed my license to a full UK license that I was insured to drive any car.

Only limitation is something daft like a open topped safari truck.

All this under/over 25, tpft, whatever, if it says on your policy you can you can, if it doesn't you can't, a lot of confusion over this for some reason and it's quite simple.
