Car Insurance
Whether you drive a big car or small car, we’ve got you covered with car insurance that can be customised to suit your needs. All so you can get on with life and back on the road.
Three levels of cover
Third Party
If you're liable for accidental damage to someone else's car or property we'll take care of the costs, including the legal bill.
Third Party, Fire & Theft
Covers your costs if you accidentally damage someone else's car or property. Plus, if your vehicle is stolen or damaged by fire we'll pay up to the Agreed Value to repair or replace it.
Comprehensive
Keeps you fully protected. We'll cover damage to your car and also any damage you might cause to someone else's car or property.

Our car insurance has an open driver policy, unless a special term has been applied to your policy. This means that any licensed driver who has your permission to drive your car, will automatically be covered, provided they don’t have any unacceptable traffic or criminal convictions and have not made any unacceptable claims or had unacceptable accidents (for example, using the car illegally). Please see your policy schedule to determine if a special term has been applied to your policy.
