Third Party Car Insurance Policy Benefits:

Lifetime repair guarantee

When we fix your car it stays fixed. We stand behind all repairs carried out by our approved repairers and we guarantee parts and workmanship for the life of the vehicle — even if you sell it.

Legal liability cover

If you are legally responsible for damage to someone else's vehicle or property, we'll protect you against any claim they make, up to $20 million.

Uninsured accident cover

If there's an accident and you weren't at fault but you can identify who was and they're uninsured, we'll pay $4,000 to repair your car or the market value, whichever is the lesser.

We offer Comprehensive, Third Party, Fire & Theft, Third Party and Classic Vehicle insurance policies. These policies can be customised to include only the benefits you want, so you only pay for the benefits you need. For more details around what each policy covers see our Car Insurance page.

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.

There are a number of ways you can reduce your car insurance premium with us. If you have a Comprehensive policy you could choose to exclude benefits, such as Rental Cover or Excess-Free Glass Cover, in exchange for a lower premium.

Another way to reduce your premium is to choose a higher excess in return for a lower premium. Remember, you will only need to pay your excess if you make a claim.

We offer a Lifetime Repair Guarantee when your vehicle is repaired by one of our approved repairers. We guarantee the quality of workmanship, parts and materials used to complete the repairs for your claim. The guarantee will remain in place while your vehicle is registered for road use in New Zealand.
