just got a quote for the focus st3 at £2072 (cheap seeing as i'm paying 2300 on the fiesta) and it says i can choose to be able to drive other cars third party only.
do you have to be over a certain age or can it be for anyone? it doesn't say anything about age on the website itself, so i was just wondering whether anyone on here knew/took out that polic upgrade?
thanks.

If you chose it you'll be able to use it, how much is it charging you?
Costs me 27.95 extra i think.

They'll also let my 18 year old brother add it but it costs him considerably more than 28 quid.
Bell will let you if you can chose it.

It costs me £50 to have it, I chose the option and use it often. Its all gravy!
On a side note, does the car have to be insured that your driving?

I'm 22 and I just did a quote with Bell and it didn't say I could have it. Directline won't let me have it until I'm 25, but then again if people lend me their car they insure me on it.
And they just dropped the quote £220 when I added my other half, even with her two accidents.
