The premium for car insurance is calculated as a percentage of the value of your car. If you have had any accidents, it would be factored in to the premium. If you have not had any accidents, we offer a no-claims bonus with the renewal of your policy
Also known as ‘Deductible’, the Policy Excess is the fixed amount of money that you have to pay for each and every claim you may have – the Policy Excess is there to offer you a lower overall premium for your car insurance
The premium for super-fast and exotic cars is a little higher and the policy excess (deductible) is higher too based on the fact that these cars are very expensive to repair and generally have a higher risk of accidents than normal cars
Our Roadside Assistance cover gets you moving quickly. Apart from towing services, we also offer mechanical first aid, flat tyre, lock – out, fuel and battery services. This cover is applicable for non-accidental breakdowns only.
