    Dont put your reg number in and enter the model details manually

    P.S This is the qualifying data for the Aviva new car replacement.

    New car replacement

    If your vehicle is less than 12 months old from purchase as new when you have an accident - or it's stolen and not recovered - an Aviva car insurance policy will give you a new car of the same make and specification (if one is available in the UK).
    • Provided the cost of your car insurance claim is more than 60% of the UK list price (including car tax and VAT, when you bought the car
    • The car is stolen and not recovered
    We will only replace your car if;

    • You or your partner own the car or are buying it under a hire-purchase agreement (not leasing, contract hire agreement or similar)
    • The hire purchase company agrees
    • You and your partner are the first registered keeper of the car
    A car is deemed as new when it has been pre-registered in the name of the manufacturer or supplying dealer, and your or your partner are the second registered keeper, providing at the time of purchase, by you or your partner, the car has only delivery mileage ( in any event not exceeding 250 miles.). Cars sold as 'ex-demonstrators ' or 'nearly new' do not qualify for replacement.

    Thanks, I might try a quote putting in the details manually.

    However I think I have almost decided to go with The Co-operative Insurance.

    Re the new car replacement, that section you have quoted is what I read and my car would qualify. However I have just worked out that it would need to have over £8,000 of damage before it was deemed a write off. I sincerely hope that I am never in an accident that would cause that amount of damage.

    have found that Aviva are always keen to keep the business , so worth calling them
    Any posts on here are for information and discussion purposes only and shouldn't be seen as (financial) advice.

    Aviva actually called me just a couple of days after they sent out the renewal. I told him I could get it cheaper elsewhere and was told that was the best that they could do. Even if they had knocked £20 off I might have considered staying with them as their quote was only about £25 more than last years premium.

    I finally went with the Co-operative Insurance.
  • Just received my policy details through the post after a very efficient telephone quote only to find that "commuting to & from work" was excluded from my cover. No mention of that on the quote hot-line. Also took two 20min phone calls to Customer Service to get it added on (admittedly they did it free of charge). Just hope I dont ever have to make a claim......
