Hi Stig,
No is the answer. I spoke to the Kit car club secretary at the Terenure show and he told me they have a group insurance at €150 p.a. Not bad eh!

I think there are certain limitations on the IKCC group policy. For example, you have to have a main car that's insured elsewhere, a mileage restriction, etc. That said, €150 is nothing for what would be a weekend car fr most people.
The biggest PITA would be taking it to Ingerland for a SVA test then paying whatever VRT the Mexican Midget Wrestlers at the VRO in Rosslare feel like charging on the day...
