Can a first-time driver insure old cars?
How old can a car be for a first time driver to insure(on a provisional license)
Our answer:
Hi Deirdre,
There are no rules limiting how old or new a car must be, though we have heard that some people find it difficult to get affordable insurance on cars that are older than 10 years old.
