All of you might all ready know this but just for the few young drivers who dont, there is a way to get 'reasonable' insurance for your first few years of driving while earning your own NCB. and it does not involve the thing which direct line does.
on your policy add your parents as named drivers instead of you been name drivers. im 18 now got 1 years named driving experience and i want my own policy. so i have gone with admiral and added both my parents on my 1.4 16v sri corsa as named drivers. i have said that there is no years no claims but that my parents have held there licences for how many years they have and its come back for 3rd party fire and theft with 750 pound worth of sterio damage and no years no claims
my final price is.......... £841 which i think is quite good what do you think? let me no

I thought 6 points and you loose your license?

another school of thought is that the more drivers on the policy the increased likelyhood there will be a crash.

but the more experince drivers which are on the policy shows that theres drivers who have experinece with no crashes and stuff

but if its you driving the car all the time your insurance is void, pointless really mayaswell just had your mom on your policy, may have been a bit dearer bit still cheaper than being on your own

yes that is good but when you come to start your own policy one day when you grow up, you won't have any no claims bonus and will be charged huge amounts.

tbh it'd be stupid on his own policy, and in a few years it'll be cheaper despite lack of no claims if that makes sense. i think it may work out cheaper overall
