European short term car insurance.

brianrice

Hi

I'm off to France for two weeks with the car in August and realise that I will only have third party insurance via my present insurer. I am finding it very hard to find short term, European car insurance - can anyone point me in the right direction?

Many thanks

Try asking your present insurer, they may do it for money.

Ditto.

Most car insurers offer comprehensive cover EU extension for £££. Expect £30+ extra for a fortnight.

PS
As of today we have a new comprehensive insurance cover with John Lewis Insurance - it includes up to 90 days of comprehensive EU cover, free of charge. Our old insurance policy (Citroen Insurance) was EU 3rd party only cover.

We paid £19 for a week European cover last year with our insurer (lv). Just call up your current insurer and ask to add x weeks of fully comp European cover and get a price.

Thank you for your replies to date. My present insurer does not do a 'bolt on' mid way through my policy so they will not allow me to extend it. My only option is temporary cover for a fortnight overseas. Any ideas?

Thanks in anticipation

That's unusual, who are your Insurers?

They are One Call. Not very helpful at the moment...
