Under 25 car insurance

At Direct Line we don’t like to penalise drivers simply on account of their age. That is why our policies are designed to be the best value possible while not compromising on service.

There are some points to bear in mind that will keep your costs as low as possible. Some drivers like to customise their cars but if you have any changes in mind, we strongly recommend that you call our Helpline first to discuss this, as we can’t insure anyone under 25 who has customised their vehicle.

If you want to drive but can’t afford your own vehicle, Direct Line will happily add you to your parents’ policies and let you build up your own No Claims Discount in the process, so you won’t be penalised for your safe driving record when you can afford to take out your own car insurance policy.

At Direct Line we like to encourage safe, responsible driving. Did you know, for example, that continual accelerating and braking leads to increased fuel consumption and more wear and tear on your car? An awareness of how you drive could save you money on petrol and repairs.

The best way to prove how safe you are as a driver is simple: don’t make any insurance claims – and you’ll quickly find that your premiums go down. To further reduce those premiums, think about participating in the Pass Plus scheme to www.passplus.org.uk. By completing extra driving modules that show you can cope in different circumstances such as driving at night and driving on the motorway, then you could work your way towards a 20 per cent discount for proving that you are a good driver.
