The young wons

I hope you don't mind me asking, but you mentioned an insurance company that insures young drivers, 18 years old. I am trying to get insurance for an 18 year old on an Audi A3 and am having difficulty.

Apart from adding several mature named drivers to the policy (which spreads the ‘risk’), these are the best solutions I know of:

Young driver insurance based on mileage and in monthly instalments (using smartbox telematics to check on driver behaviour):  www.insurethebox.com

Young driver car and insurance packages: Standard rate PCPs, but insurance for 17 year olds from £300 for 9 months followed by a 40% NCD www.youngmarmalade.co.uk

Young driver insurance to drive the family car up to IG16/20 at £90.95 to£99.50 a month according to postcode.www.provisionalmarmalade.co.uk

Young Driver Insurance: A policy suited to 17-25 year old, discounted by up to 40% as the car must not be driven between 11pm and 5am. www.i-kube.co.uk

Young Driver 'Pay How You Drive' black box telematics scheme that cuts premiums by monitoring driving: www.co-operativeinsurance.co.uk/youngdriver
