teenagers and car insurance

I'm asking this on behalf of a family member ...
(didn't know whether to post under teenagers topic or here)

If a teenager (aged 17) has just passed their driving test in the UK and is no longer eligible for reasonable car insurance (with adult in car) are there any affordable options thereafter?

As I understand it, it's going to cost over £4000 to buy fully comprehensive insurance for their ordinary family car and that's prohibitively expensive for the family concerned. He would be willing to carry on driving with a parent in the car (to continue to gain experience) or to drive within certain prescribed hrs (not after 6pm for example) but not sure if those sort of options exist in the motor insurance world?

Does anyone have any advice/ideas please?
