Son lives in Norway, how can I insure his in UK

[ratboiler]

As above, he is 25 full Norwegian license, and I cannot get the insurers to insure him to drive my car in the UK (TVR)

It seems to hinge on the Norwegian side of it, I would like to have him drive to Le Mans which adds even more complications.

They all say no, can you recommend an insurer who will

My ex was Norwegian on a Norwegian driving licence. I insured her on my Subaru when she was 30 or so without problems. They have pink EU/EEA photocard licences so the same rules apply as any other country. Try a different insurer and when asked say it's a European photocard licence.

As an aside she even got points on hers which they applied to a phantom UK licence.

Edit: can't remember exactly but I was probably using Direct Line at the time. HTH

Try a good broker or a specialist? Saffron/Adrian Flux may have value.

Is the problem a non-UK standard European licence? Or is the problem that he's a 25yo with no proof of any driving record and it's a TVR?

I think LoonR1 works in the insurance industry, maybe a PM to him?

Thanks for the information
yes correct it is not the licence which is the problem it is that he lives in Norway and the TVR.
They just cut it dead when I mention he does not live here and it a TVR, I only want cover for a week.
