VIDEO: Family struggle to find insurer for nine-seater car

A father of seven has revealed the lengths he has had to go to in order to have his family car insured, and said he felt discriminated against because of his family size.

Liam Coleman, from Belgooly, near Kinsale, Co Cork, said that having spent two weeks trying to get his family’s nine-seater Volkswagen Transporter insured, a broker finally secured a deal with an insurer who had rejected Mr Coleman’s attempt to get insurance directly off the company.
