    i've just changed the location of where my car will be parked overnight from garage to driveway and it's cheaper by £50!!! any explanation seeing as my garage would be safer from theft or malicious damage.

    Your more likely to hit into the garage when parking in it or reversing out, seen it happen

    I've only seen two of these types of accidents in 20+ years and they were both for damage to the up and over door which were paid for by the home insurance. The damage to the cars was minimal so was not claimed for

    Well in the time i've worked in claims i've seen plenty of those type of claims... park in the garage if you want and pay the extra, doesn't really bother me too much :)

    I thought you dealt with third party claim rather than own damage claims
