Eldest (23) has finally passed his driving test. He would like to use our car (mini) but needs some short term insurance - ideally pay monthly as he's planning to go travelling soon so doesn't need the full year.

Any recommendations for short term insurance provider?

Thanks

Add him as a temporary driver to the insurance you already have? Or, if not long left before renewal, just add him as normal?

+1

And for all those new drivers out there - Admiral allow any named drivers to earn NCB (including as learner...) if they add a policy to multicar.

Eldest_oab van at age 20 and first vehicle =£1700-£2100 elsewhere.
Admiral gave him two full years NCB and a discount as it is under multicover = £740.
Well worth it if you have a few offspring to help them into insurance.

We used Veygo whilst my son was learning. They can add bolt on cover but it does cost quite a bit once you've passed your test.

Ooft, a shame.
We are on 4th year with them, which is very unusual for us to stay with company, and renewals so far have all been falling a little each year.

Another vote for Veygo (Part of Admiral iirc)...dead easy to do and is great for doing the odd hour/day/week/month. We used it when my son was learning and after he passed for short periods when back from uni. Just started using it again for our daughter who's learning.
