Car Insurance FAQ's

Is Car Insurance mandatory in the UK?

You must have motor insurance to drive your vehicle on UK roads. Third party insurance is the legal minimum. This means you are covered if you have an accident causing damage or injury to any other person, vehicle, animal or property. It does not cover any other costs like repair to your own vehicle.

What is included in Comprehensive Insurance?

Provides cover for your own vehicle against accidental damage, fire or theft, cover to a third party for unlimited injury, and third party property damage up to £20,000,000.

What is included in Third Party Only Insurance?

Provides cover to a third party for unlimited injury and third party property damage up to £20,000,000.

What is included in Fire and Theft Insurance?

Provides cover for your own vehicle against fire or theft, cover to a third party for unlimited injury, and third party property damage up to £20,000,000.

Can I spread my payments over monthly repayments?
