    My daughter bought an 01 Yaris (1st car) and I'm looking to get her insured. She has a provisional licence (less that 1 year) and has her test next week so fingers crossed.

    I called Quinn €1,500+ for 3rd party and Britton €975 3rd party and was wondering if there are any suggestions for better quotes for insurance?

    Just checked Insure.ie and it came in at €1150 for 3rd party and €1400 for FC.....hoping to improve on that ;)

    Any advice appreiciated

    Shop around, check hibernian, aviva, aa, allianz.
    I think it would more sensible to wait until she has a full licence (if that's an option).

    My advice would be tell her she's lucky that his hasn't got testicles. I'm the same age and have the same experience as your daughter. I'm driving a megane and my insurance is €2400. That's with searching around and a generous discount from my fathers insurance broker.

    Well legally your not a qualified driver which will naturally drive the premium up. Also I'm not so sure that €2400 is the cheapest that can be got, have you tried a quote with quinn direct? Or even better getting the full license will drive down the price of your premium.
