    theres loads of companies just google it but i have to prove im a trader with accounts , invoices etc
    as for age being an old **** helps at times
    it like any other insurance theres loads to consider not just age etc all depends on the individuals circumstances
    even with a traders policy you still have to inform the insurance company on the vehicles you personally own so it can be logged on the insurance database if you dont and you get pulled it will come back as no cover and you are likely to get the vehicle taken off you

    im 25 and got a traders policey. mines ?913 and i can drive anything up to the value of 25k. my sister is 21 and a named driver on my policey. u got 2 options depends how u wanna do it. mine is a part time policey cos i have a day time job. which mean i dont need to prove im a trader untill i earn over a certain amount. but my mate has a policey his is about ?2400 but he does it full time. and were with the same company. u gotta be over 25 with most tade insurane companies i think.
