Types of Car Cover
What can Car Insurance cover?
We offer three different levels of insurance and the option to add on additional features for extra protection. You can choose from the following:
Is the highest level of cover available. It gives you the same features as TPFT, plus damage to your car, whether the accident was your fault or not. This includes any vandalism damage, theft, fire and accidental damage. Without fully comprehensive cover you are at risk of having to pay for any repairs yourself. It gives you that added level of protection and peace of mind.
Offers slightly more than the legal minimum level of cover. TPFT gives you everything you get with third party only. It also covers fire damage to your car, or damage because of a theft or attempted theft of your car. You are not covered for damaged to your own car in the event of an accident that was your fault.
This is the most basic cover you can buy, legally. It means your legal liability to third parties is covered, including damage to their vehicle or compensation for injuries sustained if the accident was your fault. If your car is damaged in any way, this isn’t covered.
