There are many occasions when you may need a Temporary Insurance policy. Usually this can be planned, but there are times when you need cover urgently, or in an emergency.

Weekend insurance is great when you have the opportunity to borrow a van, say for a weekend away with your partner, and you are struggling to get your annual motor insurer to amend the annual policy to cover the few days you need. With our policies, you can book in advance just for the days you need cover (up to 28 days) and the policy will be live when you are due to set off. You can specify the time you want your insurance oolicy to start and pay in advance giving security that you will be comprehensively covered by a policy in your name. You can even add a driver to share the driving over long distances.

Often people will need temporary insurance during holiday periods. This may be required to share the driving on a journey, or to borrow a van that has a feature that your van doesn't i.e. a tow bar etc. Sometimes you may need to add an additional driver for your own van, or you may need temporary insurance to borrow a friend?s van for holidays abroad. Often this is because the borrowed van is more reliable or has greater capacity to carry passengers and luggage.

Another example of a planned use is buying a van from an auction or private sale where you need insurance to drive the vehicle away, or to test drive a van you may be thinking of buying. It could be as simple as trying out another van belonging to friends or family.

Students often create problems when they come home from university and need to drive their parent?s van whilst at home. Relatives visiting from abroad who hold a UK or EEC licence can buy temporary van insurance so they can then borrow your van to get about, instead of incurring hire van charges. The need for short term insurance can be as simple as your son/daughter wanting to borrow your van without having to put them on your annual motor policy, and putting your no claims bonus at risk.

The type of situations where you may need temporary van insurance in an emergency are where a driver is too ill to drive and you need to be able to take over the driving at short notice. You can buy a one day policy on-line immediately to start 15 minutes after the purchase. It is fast and flexible and if you need more Days Cover then you can log back in and buy the extra days you need at your convenience 24 hours a day.

When a crisis is upon you and you need to be mobile, temporary insurance can be a godsend. Your car isn't working and you need to borrow a van to get the kids to school or yourself to work. You may have lent your car out and find you need to use another van to undertake a vital task. As the process to obtain cover is simple and quick, you can be mobile in minutes on the same day.

All drivers want to protect their no claims bonus, especially if they are lending their vehicle to another person. With comprehensive insurance you need not worry, as the vehicle can be used without putting any ?no claims discount? at risk.
