car insurance for 18 yr old learner driver ??

[Minitoots]

We're about to take out a new car insurance policy and want to add our son as a learner driver only - my partner will be taking him out for practice lessons but once he passes, we will take him off the policy as he would not be driving the car after that. The policy would also have to include me - has anyone been in a similar situation and found reasonably priced policies? I'm about to trawl through all the comparison websites but thought it would be good to see if anyone has done it recently... thanks

I know my cousin went through this recently with his 17 year old, the cheapest by far was a policy /company called Marmalade. Good luck

thanks. Marmalade is fine for short term insurance but we found that one for all of us works out cheaper pro rata - it's called 'Drive Smart' and you have to get a tracker/black box thing fitted.

The insurance is reduced if you agree to a curfew as well.
