Vehicle Types

Cover for Every Type of Vehicle

Cover for vehicles used for business - goods carriers, passenger vehicles and taxis.

  • Permits and driver documentation are relevant
  • Fleet requirements can be discussed separately

Vehicle Insurance Renewal

Renewing before expiry keeps cover continuous and protects accrued benefits.

Cover Types

Comprehensive Insurance

A comprehensive policy combines third-party liability cover with own-damage cover for your vehicle. Depending on the policy wording, own-damage cover may respond to accidental damage, fire, theft and certain natural events.

  • Includes the third-party component along with own-damage cover
  • Claim amounts are subject to IDV, depreciation and the applicable deductible
  • Optional add-ons can change how depreciation is applied at claim time
  • Exclusions typically include wear and tear and driving without a valid licence

Third-Party Insurance

Third-party cover is intended to meet your legal liability towards another person for injury or damage caused by your vehicle. It does not cover damage to your own vehicle.

  • Covers liability to third parties within the policy terms
  • Damage to your own vehicle is not covered under this cover alone
  • Motor insurance requirements are set by the law applicable where the vehicle is registered
Checklist

What to Consider Before Choosing a Policy

  • Cover type - comprehensive or third-party, based on the vehicle's age and value
  • IDV - set realistically; it caps a total-loss claim
  • Deductibles - the compulsory and voluntary excess you would bear
  • Add-ons - worth the premium only if they match how you use the vehicle
  • No Claim Bonus - check it is carried across correctly when you switch insurer
  • Claim process - cashless garage network in the areas you drive
  • Exclusions - read them before, not after, an incident

FAQs

Vehicle Insurance - Frequently Asked Questions

General information on motor cover, claims and renewals.

What is the difference between third-party and comprehensive cover?

Third-party cover is intended to meet your legal liability for injury or damage caused to another person or their property. Comprehensive cover includes that third-party element and additionally covers damage to your own vehicle, within the terms and exclusions of the policy.

What is Insured Declared Value (IDV)?

IDV is the value assigned to your vehicle in the policy and is generally the maximum amount payable in the event of a total loss or theft. It is normally based on the manufacturer's listed price adjusted for depreciation, and it affects both the claim amount and the premium.

What is No Claim Bonus?

No Claim Bonus is a discount that typically accrues for each consecutive claim-free policy year, up to a maximum defined by the insurer. Making a claim usually resets or reduces it, which is one reason small claims are sometimes not worth making.

What happens if I let my policy lapse?

A lapsed policy can mean the vehicle is uninsured, and accumulated No Claim Bonus may be lost if the gap exceeds the period the insurer allows. Insurers commonly require a vehicle inspection before issuing cover after a break.

Can I transfer my policy when I sell the vehicle?

Insurers generally allow a motor policy to be transferred to a new owner along with the vehicle, subject to their process and documentation. The No Claim Bonus normally belongs to the person, not the vehicle, and is handled separately.

What are add-on covers?

Add-ons are optional covers purchased with a comprehensive policy - zero depreciation, engine protection, roadside assistance and return-to-invoice are common examples. Each carries its own premium and its own conditions in the policy wording.

Do you help with commercial vehicle insurance?

Yes. Commercial vehicle requirements differ from private ones in the way the vehicle is used, who drives it and what it carries. Describe the vehicle and its use in the enquiry form and we will explain what typically applies.
