I'm Selling My Car
Why Should I Facilitate A Customer Test Drive?
- To make sure that the buyer gets every chance make an informed decision to buy your car and avoids problems later
- To make sure the buyer gets to see just how great the car drives and adds pressure to buy it from you
- It helps drive the sale forward so you can get on with getting your next car or using the sale cash as you need it
- Nothing makes a sale more likely than a great customer test drive experience
Why Is It So Important To Make Sure That The Buyer Has Comprehensive Insurance Cover?
- Driving without insurance is a serious offence
- Any damage to the car will not be covered by your insurance if the buyer is driving
- You will have to try and get the repair cost off the buyer if there is no insurance cover
- You can accompany as a passenger but your insurance would not cover the buyer driving
How Can The Buyer Get Cover To Test Drive Your Car?
- You could add them as a temporary additional driver on your annual policy but you will pay a hefty fee and it takes days to get a cover note. Any claim will affect your no claims bonus.
- They could add your car to their policy in substitution for their car but it costs, takes days and you can only insure one car a time
- They could drive under any “drive other vehicle cover” if they have it. But it is only 3rd party so you would not get your car repaired and a lot of insurers are withdrawing this type of cover.
- Your buyer can buy a dayinsure policy for a day, in advance or instantly, with comprehensive cover specific to your car which does not affect your no claims bonus. They pay direct for the cover and can immediately produce the certificate to prove the cover is in place.
Get peace of mind in facilitating a test drive with proper comprehensive cover from as little as £14 a day.
When the buyer contacts you to see the car for a test drive, tell them to get cover from www.dayinsure.com
