Im an 18yr old male driver with one years no claims, does anyone know
of any insurance companies that i will be able to get cover for my car
on a monthly basis. As a student i do not need me car term time however
would like it for the christmas break.

Many Thank,
James

If all you need it for is Christmas, wouldn't it be cheaper to hire a
car and driver. Let the driver worry about the fucking insurance.

Insurance companies like regular business. If you need a car you might as
well use it all year round. You might care to consider insuring a group 1
vehicle just to built up some no-claims that'll save you lots of money when
you advance to something better.

Without knowing where in the world you live, its hard to make a
recommendation. Try doing a google search or asking an independent
insurance agent if he or she can make a recommendation.

Or just rent a car from any of the major rental agencies and sign up for
the agency's liability insurance.

None of the majors will rent to an 18 year old.

That's why I suggested hiring a car and driver. The per mile charge
will be ridiculously high. However, the per year expense would be
cheaper than owning, parking, and insuring a beater just so you have a
car on Christmas. Plus you get chauffered around in a decent ride.
