Struggling to obtain insurance

    I work for a UK company that recently set up in Ireland. We are a freight forwarder that purchased 2 vans in Ireland. I've rang several insurance companies, all of which refused to quote. Any ideas?

    The company is thinking of cutting it's loses and pulling out of Ireland based on this even though only 2 months established here.

    Mid 2018 seems to be the arrival date. Afloat says it will do Dublin Holyhead next summer and do Ireland to France at weekends, not exactly sure how that will work. Nice modern look to it from the 3D pic...


    Ring a Broker.

    My mother - who is a granny with 50 + years No claims bonus, never a penalty point - and her Micra, got screwed into the ground.
