test during that year? I am about to buy a car to practise driving in and the best quote I've got for a provisional license is just over 300 quid but the best I can find for a full license is almost twice that.

If I bought a years provisional insurance but passed my test within, say 6 months, what would happen to the insurance? Would it still be valid?
 
you tell your insurance company you have passed your test, you pay extra money to the insurance company

your documents come in the post.. you drive..and then like me after 4 months of passing you have a car crash!!
 
As soon as you pass you need to tell them your circumstances have changed. Its the law. Then you'll need to pay more. When getting quotes ask for the price with provisional and the price it will be when you pass.
 
speak to the insurers, it wil still be valid but you wil be paying more than you need having then passed a test for a full license. it can be rebated on a pro rata rate but not all insurers are accommodating. ask before taking out the insurance .
 
You cannot get car insurance on a provisional licence. A full UK driving licence is a basic requirement for insurance. Sorry.
