Ignition program and crazy quotes

Running Bing

Anyone have any info on this "ignition" thing hibernian do? i.e. whats the test like? how much off the insurance etc.
I'm 19, have a provisional license and hoping to get insured on my mothers 1.1 litre Punto (mother and father already insured on it. I know I'm screwed :mad: )

Also my mother rang up Quinn direct for a quote today for me and her on the punto. They said it would be 3800 for both of us or 2700 for me and 400 for her(which amounts to 3100 ). Can anyone explain this strange twisted thinking to me. Cheers.

Have a sex change! The operation is probably cheaper than your quote and once its done your insurance will be feck all.

It's pretty hard to tell what kind of reduction you get, they say up to 40%, but this is no good if it is 40% off 5K.

Also you need your full license - this is from the Hibernian site

Have you tried FBD? I'm insured on my moms 206 1.1 for €500 as a named driver, same as you.

The best thing to do when you have a few hours free is to get out the golden pages and ring every company and broker there - it is sometimes possible to get a cheaper quote from a broker than you would get directly from the company itself.

Nothing. Fully comprehensive too. I'm the 3rd named driver (my mom whose car it is, my dad, my bro and me).

FBD are the way to go, I've heard only good things about them
