Car insurance

Why compromise? With our car insurance, you can get the cover you've been looking for, but without having to pay over the odds for the privilege.

Stay on the road - with a complimentary courtesy car

Green Flag discount - save on breakdown cover

In-car technology - covered up to £1000

Home insurance discount - get an extra 15% off

No claims discount - up to 65%, or 70% if you're over 50

Take our comprehensive cover, and you'll qualify for a complimentary courtesy car while your car's repaired at one of our approved repair centres.

We always try our best to give you a courtesy car - however, they are subject to availability.

There's only one thing worse than breaking down - and that's having to pay over the odds for help. So why not take advantage of our cut price rates on Green Flag breakdown cover?

When you've been involved in an accident, you need to know you can rely on your car insurance.

Simply call us at any time of the day or night. Car too damaged to drive? We'll recover your vehicle, and deliver it to a repairer. We'll even deliver the car back to you.

There's no need to get different quotes - our approved repair centres take care of all that, and there's sure to be one near you. Better still, when they replace a part, it's guaranteed for three years.

Did you know you could earn up to 65% no-claims discount? Up to 70% if you're over 50.

We'll hand you an extra saving of 15% on your car insurance - as a way of saying 'thank you' for taking our home insurance.

Integrated sat navs, phone systems and in-car entertainment can set you back quite a bit. So it's good to know our comprehensive policies give you up to £1000 of cover.

With our comprehensive cover, you can replace that broken glass without affecting your no-claims discount. All you have to pay is your policy excess and use an approved repairer.

Choose this option, and if an accident's not your fault, we'll help recover uninsured losses for you and your spouse. That includes recovering your excess under our comprehensive policy. We'll also pay up to £50,000 legal costs.
