Why not just find a good quote and keep the insurance? I personally don't know of any.

The usual alternative is to get any random policy and cancel within 14 days.

I'm around your age (A bit older) with a provisional license and got a cheap quote with Quinn Direct. All I needed to do was add my dad as an additional driver and I got it down to 1k (Peugeot 206, 1.1, X-Plate, 5Dr).

It's not impossible my mate is 17 and he has been insured on his dads XC90 for a few weekends. I'm not quiet sure which company he was with but he got it done.

Are you buying private or from a dealer? I've just been in the same position as you and I was stuck for ideas as none of the day insure companies would touch me because I'm only 18. Luckily, the dealer I bought from was part of the 'Driveaway' scheme which basically means you can get 7 days free insurance no matter your age.
