Romantic insurance for Young Drivers

Thu, 02 Feb 2006

Young Drivers could save money this Valentine's Day by putting their partner on their Car Insurance policy.

It may not be as romantic as a candle-lit meal or a diamond ring but Privilege Insurance claim that by insuring your partner on your own policy you could save enough for a special Valentine treat next year.

The so-called "Insured and Partner" policies tend to offer a more competitive quote and could be one way for younger drivers to lower their motoring costs as well as allowing their partner to build up a no claims discount.

For example, a professional man living in London and driving a Citroen Picasso could save around £47 by simply adding a female partner of a similar profile to his policy, whilst, a 37 year old woman living in Kent could save £21 by adding her male partner.

Privilege Insurance managing director, Ian Parker, commented: "In our experience, drivers taking the ‘Insured and Partner’ option represent a lower risk — perhaps because the responsibility of being in a long-term relationship translates into safer driving when behind the wheel."
