Hi

I Know, you said you tried online forms, but would Quinn not quote for it?
If you ring them over the phone they probably wont quote for new business, but for some reason if you manually put your car details online with the make and model, it should quote.

Best of Luck

In addition to 123 and Quinn, try http://www.brittoninsurance.ie, if they have picture of this kinda junk on their site then I can't see them refusing to quote for an FTO (stranger things have happened though):

I find it disturbing that you have to play these games to get insured on an fto on many occasions. Will we ever switch to a "driver insured" system? :nwor

Theres a thread dedicated to companies that insure FTO's in this forum at the top (sorry cant ad links on the mobile)
If your having problems insuring it the best route seems to be switching your existing policy over to the FTO, that way your insurance company has to give you a sensible quote or else face having to give you a refund for the policy remainder. If you dont have an existing policy an all the quotes are 2 expensive the other option is to get a policy in wifes/girlfriends/parents name and then add yourself as a named driver.
