I was given a number for a broker in Sligo about 5 years ago called cavanagh hooper dolan. I have priced around with the others at every renewal but could never beat their price. Worth giving them a shout

Just got a quote of €5,000 from 123.ie!

I've been driving 9 years (on a provisional Embarrassed) have my full licence test next week so fingers cross I pass it!

Now I had a minor claim when driving as a named driver on my mams premium, will my quote come down a good amount once I have the full licence and can anyone recommend the cheapest company to turn too please?

Kimbap would it not be cheaper to do online? I'm in a similar position regarding full Irish license, no points and 10+ years experience. The cheapest i got yesterday online with a 1.4L car was €490 from 123.ie

Had to renew car insurance there last week.Was with Allianz.850e last year.I have a full Irish license for 20 years,no points and drive a 1.4 litre car.Thats a fairly hefty slice of wedge as it was and then they wanted 950e off me this year.

I rang around and eventually got 650e from Chill.The only way to sort this is to ring around,spend an afternoon at it.

Is online the best place to get car insurance instead of the store?

After searching around i found 123.ie to be the cheapest but was wandering if there's anywhere cheaper than them?

Check into that, when renewing again, it might be in the small print.
If its husband & wife its grand, it can be registered in either name and insured in either name. For everyone else it needs to be insured in whoever's name it's registered
 
Just about the above posts, switching every year is one way of going about it all but it really shouldn't need to be done. If you haven't had a policy in a few years and lost your bonus but were driving under the missus insurance for example, you'd get the benefit of that driving experience when you go to get your own policy again anyway. At least with the majority of companies you will

Yep, that's exactly what we've done. It's a common enough practice for this situation. Just cancel or wait for her insurance to be up.

Two years it is.

I was in the same boat so now myself and my wife switch insurance each year on the same car, this year I'm the main with her named driver and next year vice versa, it's the only way to keep both sets of no claims floating. If you have no one that can fill that role I'm not sure what you'd do.
