TV celebrity Richard ‘The Hamster’ Hammond who presents BBC2’s Top Gear knows a few things about crashing cars and expensive accidents, so you would assume he knows a bit about motor insurance.
That’s what Young Marmalade will be hoping for as Hammond has given the innovative insurance company his celebrity backing, saying “It’s a clever idea.”
Young Marmalade last month launched Provisional Marmalade into the UK, a policy that offers learner drivers the opportunity to earn their own no claim discount in their own name.
“Getting covered with Provisional Marmalade is as easy as using iTunes or Amazon,” says Young Marmalade MD Crispin Moger. “You simply log on, plug in your details and pay a low £90-£99 in advance each month and you’re away. Once you pass your test you stop paying. If you want to have a break from practicing you stop paying, then start again when you’re ready to go again. Provisional Marmalade changes everything for learner drivers.”
Some advantages of Provisional Marmalade:
- Provisional Marmalade means learner drivers have a policy in their own name and aren’t added to a parents existing policy.
- It is the biggest revolution in car insurance for young people.
- Parents don’t have to risk their no claims bonus if ’Little Johnny’ has a bump.
- Parents don’t have to pay extortionate top up fees for adding a learner driver as they do currently from traditional insurance providers.
Young Marmalade were winners of the ’Most Innovative Concept’ award in the BT Business Essence of the Entrepreneur Awards 2008.

Good article John. This is really good. The advantages are really good. I have gone through some of the insurance site where it has a good information about the car insurance and its schemes or policies which is really good and where you can solve your queries too. Now the insurance company is looking to give the best and better benefits to there customers and this is really good.carinsurancetemporary.co.uk
