Kit car insurance for under 25

6 May 2018, 8:19pm
Hi all,
New to the forum I have an issue with my MEV exocet that I have just built in my gap year. However I forgot to check if I could get insurance on the car, so now I'm stuck with no insures offering a quote due to me being 19 even as a named driver with my father. Has anyone got any suggestions as to get me on the road apart from a track day, I'll take any advice! Thanks in advance

Harry - Welcome to the forum. :cool:

Have you been trying 'normal' car insurance companies, or kit car specialists?

Have a look in a kit car magazine to see who advertises there.

I use A-Plan for mine, others on here use Adrian Flux.

Footman James and Cherished Vehicle Insurance are just a couple more.

Good luck, Paul. :)

PS
Any photos of your build?

Hi Paul, yes I've been trying just about every specialist insurer including all you mentioned apart from cherished vehicle insurance so I will give that one a go thanks!

Harry - Nice car. :cool:



Hope you can find someone to insure it.

As a last resort you could try "Drives like a girl" if that is still going, as they required you to fit a 'black box' and would refund part of the premium if you drove "sensibly".

Cheers, Paul. :)
