All paint and bodywork repairs carried out by their recommended repairers are guaranteed for the lifetime of the car. A Legal Assistance Plan* is available as an insurance optional extra which provides legal help to try and recover sums of money, such as your excess, that you might otherwise lose even when the accident was not your fault. It will also be able to help you try and get compensation for any personal injuries you may have received.

The company will provide a small complimentary vehicle whilst your own car is off the road following an incident covered by your insurance policy and you have their comprehensive cover provided your car is being repaired by one of their recommended repairers. However, they will not provide a vehicle if your own car has been stolen or damaged beyond economical repair.

Car sharing to and from work etc. is not written into the insurance policy. If you are intending to car-share you should check if your particular circumstances are acceptable.

If you pay an extra premium the company will provide a Foreign Use Extension* which will extend insurance cover to provide full cover (under its terms) for the time your car is in, or is being transported to or from, any country covered by the Foreign Use Extension.
