Temporary Cover for Cars
Customers aged 21* and over can purchase short term, comprehensive car insurance
for periods of between 1 and 28 days, subject to a maximum of 112 days in any rolling
12 month period. The temporary cover can be booked up to 28 days in advance of usage.
An added benefit is that short term cover does not affect any annual no claims bonus
levels. European cover is also available for an additional cost.

Short Car Insurance
Drivers will need additional, short car insurance at some stage, either to use a
vehicle that does not belong to them, to drive home a new purchase or to insure
another person to drive their own vehicle. Here are a few examples:
- Emergency day cover for a temporary driver, or additional vehicle
- Temporary car insurance for planned uses such as driving another car/van, borrowing
a friend’s vehicle or travelling on a driving holiday
- Temporary cover to facilitate the delivery of your new purchase
- Day cover for test-driving a private car or a Dealer’s demonstrator
- Driving a Dealer’s courtesy car while yours is being serviced/repaired
- Visiting from Australia or New Zealand and need daily cover to borrow a car
- Expats borrowing family/friends cars in the UK
Weekly Car Insurance
We provide a simple, easy to use internet booking website that requires minimal
information about both the driver and the vehicle. The site clearly directs the
user through the week car insurance application process, payment is made via secure
debit/credit card transaction, and the certificate and schedule can be printed out
immediately at the end of the application process. We also send a copy of the certificate
and schedule attached to a confirmatory email. For an additional fee you can request
a posted certificate of car insurance.

Weekend Car Insurance
When you need a break from the mundane it would be great to get the family together,
put the tent in the car with the dogs, pack up and just go. Real life is not like
that. You cannot fit it all in the company car, but your mate will let you borrow
his people carrier for the weekend. In the past getting insurance at short notice
was a problem and often put paid to the great, spur of the moment plans and fun
for your family. Our weekend car insurance policy is the answer. You can get short
term cover in minutes on line for as long as you need to cover your short break.
Go on, just do it!

Daily Breakdown Cover/DayresQ
Just to prove a point that we really are the market leaders in day cover policies,
you only have to look as far as our dayresQ products for cars, vans and motorbikes.
We have partnered with not one but two of the biggest names in roadside recovery
and provide daily recovery for your vehicle for a modest additional fee.
It is a quality product and can be selected to cover Europe for those touring holidays.
We did this in June 07 and most of the competition has still not caught up yet.
But, like everything we do, because we are specialists in daily cover policies,
we have not stopped there and we will reveal our new daily breakdown policies in
early 2010!
