    Can you insure under a qualified driver?

    What car are you trying to insure?

    The general rule when it comes to insuring a car as an 18 year old male is that if you can imagine your granny driving it then its probably too big...

    AFAIK if u choose Aviva and will do ''IGNITION TEST'' they might come down big time.It is free.My friend age 20 was quoted 2100 he did ''test'' ,went down to 1300

    That test sounds good in theory, but do you have to have already signed up with Aviva beforehand and then take the test? If you do, then I'd imagine they have a very low pass rate, I mean they are undoubtedly trying to make as much money as they can.

    When I first insured in Ireland I did the Ignition test and passed, can't remember how much it brought it down by but it's worth a shot imo.

    There's also that DriveSave with a tracking box in the car :D

    DriveSave - no longer needs "box fitted" - can be downloaded as APP for smartphones

    test drive plan with AXA allows upto 20% and refund of test fee as long as you pass it

    see axa.ie/drivesave
