Young drivers could save over £300 insuring their own car with Marmalade versus the average UK quote for drivers aged under 25 (Consumer Intelligence Price Index – June 2022). Or, if getting your own car is out of reach, we can help make getting on the road even cheaper with savings of up to £1000, for young drivers who choose our flexible car sharing insurance.
What type of insurance do young drivers need?
If you’re looking for insurance cover that protects you and any other parties involved should you have an accident, comprehensive cover is the best, and often the cheapest option. The comprehensive cover gives you the peace of mind that should you be involved in an accident, your car repairs or cost for replacement will be sorted so you won’t have to foot the entire bill yourself.
Other insurance options are Third Party which, as the name suggests, covers only the third party if you’re in an accident, and Third-Party Fire & Theft which also covers you should your car be stolen.
