Lease Car Insurance

CCFlyer

Hi, I am looking to get a Lease car for a while due offers.

I am looking for an insurance policy with the following restrictions;

I will most likely have the car for 3/6 months at a time then it will change.

Some of the conditions of the rental provider are; ‘Scot Group Ltd t/a Thrifty Car and Van Rental’ must be listed as the legal owner and registered keeper of the vehicle."

"Data protection consent must be added to the policy; this allows a member of our insurance team to speak with your insurance provider and approve that the policy is set up correctly."

"The total policy excess must not exceed £1000."

Any help would be appreciated

Is that not just a mid term hire rather than a lease?

Won't it be costly to hire for 3 - 6 months? Why the need to swap so often?

Well they class it as a short term lease so yes you are correct mid term hire.

It is because half yearly I will not be in the country. So would benefit from the short term so have flexibility.

The issue is trying to find the insurance.

May be easier to go via a broker.

Benefit in the short term but at what cost?

Cheaper to buy something and tax/insure it for a whole year?
