If you were to agree to insure the car for an under-25 driver using the red key, then that would become part of the conditions of insurance - if I then chose to allow a named under-25 driver to use my car on a normal key and they had an accident my insurance would be null and void and I'd lose £45K worth of car...that alone would be incentive enough for me to ensure that the red key is the only key used by the young driver.
