Tempory insurance

[Norman87]

Could do with someone pointing me in the right direction here. My current policy on my peugeot finishes on the 1st September, and I was planning on waiting untill the 19th (my birthday) to insure my new E30 as this would save me hundreds seeming as I have no ncb and all. However that leaves me with 19 days without a car irritatingly, so I could do with tempory cover untill then, although all the companies I find only do it for over 21s which is no good for me... anyone know a good company for tempory insurance?

There is no need for temp insurance. Simply renew you Pug insurance, then after 19 days change it over to the E30. they will then calculate how much more/less it will cost.

it will work out expensive if you do temp cover, do as smithy said. i cant find anywhere that will temp cover an 28 year old, the lowest ive seen is 21!!

That wouldn't work as I'm planning on using a different company, and I need to start the new policy on the 19th in order to make it less. What would work is to renew the pug one then cancel it within the cooling off period, but I don't think the cooling off period is that long. I could always have myself put on the insurance for my dad's car for a few weeks I suppose

i think the cooling off period is 14days with most insurance.

what you could do is get your dad to get temp insurance on your car and add you on.

Yeh was thinking that. Fingers crossed anyway... just want to drive my bimmer!
