can i get car insurance cover with being a learner driver in a car i bought?

Question

i have bought a car and i am a learner driver.can i get insurance cover with a provisional licence.

Answer 1

Yes as you have an insurable interest in the car you are the one who needs to insure it. Many companies will charge you more but Norwich union Direct, Ford insure, Asda and Barclays dont. Check the post office too, I think they might do it without charging more on increasing any xs

Answer 2

A couple of things. The best advice is to try your local insurance broker as many direct companies only want experienced drivers. You also get the advantage of free professional advice and if you have any queries you can always pop in to see them! Avoid Quinn like the plague - read their insurance policy to find out why - it is much worse than others available. Make sure that his mates have extended their insurance policy to allow him to drive before he goes out in their cars - see the certificate of insurance it should either have his name on it or 'any person driving with the policyholder's permission or with their consent' - this cover is not found very often these days as it is relatively expensive and people want cheap policies (until they claim that is!) With regards to the insurance on the vehicle - your husband will have an accidental damage excess of probably £300 - £400 if he buys comprehensive cover so if the vehicle is not worth very much third party fire and theft may be a better option - again any broker worth his salt will provide quotes on both options (sometimes comprehensive cover on an old vehicle with a high excess is cheaper than TPF&T cover and at least you get the windscreen covered!)

Not sure if you are male or female, but I checked this out for my daughter who turns 17 next month.....we found that diamond was the cheapest, though that was about £1400 for fully comp insurance with me as a named driver.

Best advice, shop around.......know what you want and start saving now as a lot of companies will only accept up front payments!!!

Answer 5

Yes

Answer 6

yes you can but it wont be cheap.Worth you looking around to see what best deal you can get and if your car isnt worth much then you may as well get third party insurance on it as that will probably be the cheapest to get.hope thats of help

Answer 7

Yes you can. My neice did this when she bought her first car while still a learner.

Answer 8

Yes you can but if you break the law when driving your car the insurance will be nil and void .
