I have found car and wanted to drive around at night with a friend but can't insure it yet, what's you guys advice?

I've spent a lot of money on lessons so far that's why

Don't thats silly, you are just looking to get banned from driving for 2 years even before you passed.

Don't drive it - obviously. But then again if you're asking this question.........

If you can't insure it, you can't legally drive it on public road.

Ask someone who is insured to drive it (one of your parents?) to test drive it on your behalf with you in the car.

Don't drive without insurance. It's illegal for a reason, and these days the police don't even have to stop you to find out whether or not you're insured, since their cars are equipped with ANPR cameras, so you WILL get caught eventually.

Don't do it. The police can easily find out if you're not insured and you could face a driving ban. As someone else has already said they don't need to stop you to find out. Totally not worth the risk.

And let's be honest, driving without insurance is just a bit of a dick move.

You say you have spent a lot of money on driving lessons so far- well that will be a complete waste if you get banned.
For gods sake dont do it. Driving without insurance is illegal for a reason.

If you've passed your test you could buy a cheap moped instead once you've done a cbt.
