Car Insurance Query - Being Able To Drive Other Cars

[Haybails1980]

Does anyone know of any insurance companies that will let drivers under the age of 25 drive other cars with permission at Third Party level?

My g/f is due to renew her insurance on her '08 plate 1.4 Corsa SXi and wants a policy that has this included if possible. She's 23 with 4 years NCB and has over 4 years driving experience.

I've tried Quinn Direct but they want around £750. The renewal with Bell is around £475 which is steep as she was around £360 last year with 1 year less NCB.

Any help is appreciated!

Bell is £140 extra for me and I'm 19.

You can do it with Bell, i've got mine with them. Think you have to click on the Flexi-Bell option.

Its a myth that if your fully comp you can drive any car so your right to check. It has to be written on the certifiacate if your alowed to do this. I have it on my policy and i didn't ask for it, maybe this is as i'm 25 now. Best carrying on as you are and check through the different companies. Adrian flux (i have my policy with them) would be a good one to call as they're a brokers so thy can check many companies for you

Well worth having.. free on mine with Direct Line

Check what you are really covered for. I am with direct line and checked with them about this some time ok, they told me that I would be insured to drive another vehicle that has it's own FULLY comp insurance in an emergency only!

Sound like they would try to wriggle out of any claim if you ask me.

^^^My g/f's pal got stung with that one as she crashed her brothers car. It went to court but got thrown out due to the small print being unclear.

I'm going to phone the current insurer to see why the renewal is so high and see if they can improve it at all.................then take it from there I guess.

Im 20, im with Quinn & i can drive any car i like, 3rd party cover.

Quinn Direct want over £750!

I spoke with Bell and they will reduce the £485 renewal to £445. They told me that in a years time the "flexibell" for under 25's will be withdrawn.
