insuring a car for a month

spaceboy

I want to insure a car for a month while I try to sell it. Can anyone suggest an insurance company as not all of them seem to do this.

googling 'short term car insurance' brings up plenty of choice.

Thanks. Seems quite expensive, I might be better getting a year's cover and then cancelling.

Yes, do this.

Are you insuring another car? You can usually add an overlapping car for a while.

No I have a company car now and still haven't sold my old car.

I used the company below when my daughter was learning to drive, select the days, day by day, easy.

I'd probably do this, just make sure you weigh up the cost of cover versus admin charges when choosing which company to go with.

Is the old car still insured or has it been taken off the road.


If the policy covering it hasn't expired, it might be worth contacting your insurer and seeing if they would extend the end date by a month.
If they are able to do this, the premium and admin fee may well be less than taking out a new short term policy.
