I need to put my sister in law on our car insurance for a couple of days (order from she who must be obeyed).

Are there any alternatives to adding her to our policy such as seperate short term insurance?

    You can get cover for 1-28 days as a seperate policy, done a dummy quote for a 30 year old, secretary, ok stereotype and probably sexist, it came out at £18 for 24 hours, about £28 for 2 days cover, fully comp with a £250 excess, for a mainstream car up to a value of £25,000. As it would depend on age, ocupation and postcode, you would have to get a tailored qute for you SIL. Google short term car insurance or daily insurance.

    I've used daysinure before for a weeks cover.

    It worked out at a decent price, though I seem to recall the excess was quite high.
