Argh! Insurance!
« on: 03 August 2009, 17:05 »
Just to let you know, you cannot insure a MK3 Golf for 1 day. I've just tried all the main insurance companys
that do 1 day insurance & they're saying they can't insure this car. Why does life have to be so hard!

Ok, turns out one does & that's tempcover which is great so i'll add another rant as the above is not valid now. :evil:

Right, got a quote today from Elephant which was £700 FC, then it suddenly changed to over £800 FC. What the hell.

Thank you. :grin:

Send the company a "cheque" that gets lost in the good ol' Royal Mail and cancel your insurance when you have drove your car home?

Or wait till you can afford to take out insurance.

I should not say this but find someone fully comp with any car cover and get them to drive it home, simples.

I'm getting a lift there so would need to drive their car back, so i'd need to be insured either way.
I'm just gonna get insured for the day i think.
