Car Insurance

We're here to make your life easier when it comes to insurance. That's why we offer three levels of cover depending on your needs and financial situation. All policies offer pay by the month at no extra cost. 

Comprehensive Cover

This cover is your top-of-the-line protection with a range of additional benefits. You'll receive cover for your vehicle in the event of accidental damage, fire or theft and for third party property damage, death and bodily injury (if not covered by CTP).

Key benefits

• Agreed value or market value.
• New vehicle replacement following a total loss, if the vehicle is less than 2 years old. 
• Additional cover for things like car hire, towing, emergency vehicle repairs, accommodation or transport home after an accident.
• Cover for personal items damaged in an accident or stolen from the vehicle.

Fire, Theft and Third Party Cover

This level offers protection for your vehicle in the event it is damaged by fire or stolen and provides cover for third party property damage, death or bodily injury to other people (if not covered by CTP).
Available if the market value of the car is $8,000 or less.

Key benefits

• Towing and storage of the vehicle following a not at fault accident.
• Cover for your vehicle if it is damaged by an at fault uninsured third party.
• Hire car following a theft

Third Party Property Damage Cover

Provides basic protection for damage your vehicle causes to third party property along with death or bodily injury (if not covered by CTP).
