But they will need to be prepared for a premium increase. Third-party cover is the minimum legal requirement. It will only cover you if you damage or injure another person, their vehicle or their property. Fully comprehensive covers all of the above, but also covers damage to you and your car following an accident. Some insurers offer short-term learner driver policies. Depending on the insurer, you take out cover for as little as two hours to up to six months.

A higher excess usually equals lower premiums, but make sure it is still realistic and that you will be able to afford repairs or other costs. Always make sure the person who does most of the driving is the main driver, not the named driver.
