Hi all, Three weeks ago my eldest daughter passed her driving test first time, a fantastic achievement that we are all very proud of.
She has been using her own car that we bought her since April '13 and had insurance cover in her own name as a learner driver.
However the elation has been somewhat soured by the ridiculous quotes that we are now getting to cover her now that she has passed.
Can anyone please offer any sensible advice as to where to get some affordable quotations.
We want the Policy in her name, so she can start to build up her own no claims discount. She will be doing very limited driving during the week and travelling to work at the weekend.
I would really appreciate advice from fellow petrol heads whose children have / are dealing with the same issue right now.
We understand the price will run in to 4 figures, but multiple 4 figures is downright ridiculous, how are young people supposed to start driving and get in to property market etc.
All sensible suggestions and advice really appreciated fellow p/hers....
