    ...or even quoting ?

    My daughter is 19 going on 20. Driving as named since 17, full licence since Jan 19, and even with that much of a headstart, can't seem to even get quotes.

    Even Aviva with whom she both did her LESSONS and was subsequently insured as Named by for 2 years, won't quote her......FFS :mad: :mad:

    Any recommendations ?

    TIA

    (I can't believe that after 34 yrs on the road, I'm still doing this insurance merry-go-round again....) :(:(:(

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    Did you try Liberty? They were renowned for being a young drivers insurer or at least they were.

    I got a quote from AXA at 20 years old

    well, they quoted her, for a 2006 Clio 1.2...... €5,397 :eek::eek::eek:

    FBD no-quote, says car is 'too old'. :rolleyes:

    It’s beyond me how they justify these pie in the sky prices. AXA or a broker?

    When doing the quote with liberty did you include yourself as a named driver? That normally brings down the quote for them
