Car insurance whilst learning

[GoSummer676]

What’s the best way of insuring my 17 on our 16yr old car so we can take her out to practice? I tried an add on quote to our policy online & they wanted double our current cost on top! I’ve looked at a stand alone policy just in her name and it was much cheaper but I wasn’t sure if we can have two policies running on one car? Do I just need to phone them up to get a deal or is there an add on number of days you can buy? She only wants to go out 1-2hrs a week on top of her lessons.

We used Marmalade, who offer specific learner policies which don't interfere with your own insurance policy, so yes, you have 2 policies on the same car. It was quite reasonable considering, and you don't have to insure for a whole year.

Thanks we went with collingwood in the end for six months and it was a fraction of the cost of adding her to our policy

I just started to read your post and was going to recommend collingwood as that's who we are currently using in the same situation.

This is us too, Collingwood come out much better than Marmalde
