Short Term Car Insurance

Information for car owners concerning temporary insurance cover.

The UK car insurance market continues to offer a huge variety of products aimed at many different types of motorists and lifestyle situations. It's no surprise therefore that a growing number of insurance brokers authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority are now offering short term car insurance products that are available for consumers to get a quote from and buy online.

Endsleigh recognises the fact that with the number of vehicles using Britain’s roads increasing year on year, a wider range of car insurance products are needed, including the demand for short term cover. For instance, not all policies provide courtesy cars in the event a vehicle is taken off the road following an accident or other incident meaning that a replacement vehicle may be needed during this period that requires separate short term car insurance.

An immediate drive away car insurance policy from Endsleigh is designed to help those buying a new set of wheels as temporary cover is often required for 1 or 2 days following purchase from a dealer or car supermarket until an annual policy is issued. Loss of a vehicle through fire or theft is another popular reason why many motorists seek short term insurance cover and with competitive daily rates offered for between 1 and 28 days, Endsleigh are able to provide comprehensive policies for a limited period at price that is affordable to drivers of vans and cars throughout the UK.

It would be possible for prospective customers to pay for temporary car cover by the day through Endsleigh using the kind of secure online payment system that is available on most websites offering a variety of different insurance products. There may, however, be conditions of use applicable for this particular product and certain criteria governing factors regarding who is eligible to obtain a quote from Endsleigh and other UK car insurance companies, such as age, driving experience, claims history and the type of vehicle to be driven. But as with buying kind of policy online it's important to check website information for full terms and conditions.
