There's no minimum age, but the insurance companies can make it very difficult.

Is that your own policy or are you on someone else's as last i understood nfu would not insure under 21's? well they would for £4000 LOL so in other words they didn't want to. At least that was the case when rang up for a quote, but liam is insured on his mums disco with NFU and that is cheap as chips.

Thats very odd, NFU state when you contact them that they wont insure someone under 25 unless a parent has a policy with them already?

when my bro wanted to be insured on mums 52 plate 90 he needed to be 19 with a years driving. thats direct line mind.

when i started driving mum and dad were with NFU, and they didnt like me being on te policy as they didnt really insure any one under 25
