Car registration number Please enter the car’s registration number in full. If you don’t know it you can search for the vehicle manually by selecting the “Get a quote on make and model” button and inputting the relevant details. Providing the car’s registration number helps our partners to identify the vehicle you want to insure. You can get a quote without the registration number, but you won’t be able to buy your insurance until you’re able to provide it. Important: Always double-check that the correct vehicle has been identified after you enter the registration number and before confirming that it’s your car.

What counts as a modification?
A vehicle has been modified or adapted if it’s been changed from the manufacturer’s standard specification in any way. Examples include: Changes to the bodywork, including spoilers and/or body kits Changes to the suspension, brakes, engine or exhaust system Cosmetic changes such as alloy wheels, paint, stickers or decals

You can only select a cover start date within 30 days from today because most insurers won’t let you buy a policy starting any later than this. Based on regular analysis by Go.Compare, the cheapest time to buy your next car insurance policy is around 26 days before your current policy ends. Policies are often most expensive if you buy on the day the cover starts. If you don’t know the starting date choose a date that is as close as possible but remember to update it before you take out a policy. Changing the cover start date may change the price of the policy.

What if I don’t know my postcode? Unfortunately we’re unable to provide you with quotes if you don’t know your postcode.

Your occupation status Please choose the status that best reflects your occupation.

No claims discount You get a no-claims discount for every continuous year you don’t claim on your car insurance (on a policy in your name). Most insurers will only accept your no-claim discount: when you are the main policyholder for the insurance if it’s earned on one car or insurance policy at a time if it’s earned on UK policies within the last two years A no-claims bonus gained from another vehicle (like a motorbike or van), driving abroad or a company car might not be eligible. How to find out about your no-claims discount Your most recent renewal will indicate how many no-claims discount years you’ve earned. Alternatively, contact your current insurer to find this out.

Protected no claims bonus Depending on how long you have been driving claim-free for, Insurers will give you the option to protect your no claims bonus at an additional cost. No Claims Bonus protection varies between insurers but in general it allows you to make one or more claims before your number of No Claims Bonus years falls (please consult the insurer’s website for details of its policy). No Claims Bonus Protection does not protect the overall price of your insurance policy. The price of your insurance policy may increase following an accident even if you were not at fault.

DVLA-reportable medical conditions These are conditions the DVLA says you must inform it about. They may affect your ability to drive and as such may also affect the conditions under which you’re granted your driving licence. Many insurers won’t quote online if you have DVLA-reportable medical conditions because they may require further information about these conditions before they’re able to provide a quote.

Accidents, claims and damage in the last five years You must declare any accidents, claims, losses or damage that occurred within the last five years, regardless of whether it involved your car, motorbike, van or any other motor vehicle, even where you were not at fault, were driving a different vehicle or the incident involved a named driver (even if they have since been removed from the policy). For example:- Road traffic accidents Fire, flood or storm damage Theft of or from a vehicle Windscreen/glass claims Before you buy a policy, insurers may check your claims history with the Claims and Underwriting Exchange. This check helps them to prevent claims fraud.

Motoring convictions Details of motoring convictions and driving licence endorsements can be found on your driving licence. You must declare all convictions, driving licence endorsements and fixed penalties received in the last five years regardless of whether you received them on your car, motorbike, van or any other motor vehicle. Attention! If you have a TT99 conviction code (a disqualification under a ‘totting up’ procedure) you’ll need to disclose all of the convictions that led to the disqualification. If you don’t know this information, you can obtain it from the convicting court.

Non-motoring criminal convictions Convictions considered to be spent under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 DO NOT need to be disclosed as they can effectively be ignored after a specified period of time. However, if you’ve received a prison sentence of more than four years, your conviction will never become spent. If you’re unsure, you can use Unlock’s criminal record disclosure calculator (unlock.org.uk/disclosure-calculator/) to work out whether your convictions are spent.

Cancelled, declined or voided policies Insurers can decline, cancel or void your insurance. They do this for a variety of reasons. Things like not being honest when you buy insurance. Or getting a criminal conviction during a policy term. Special terms added These are extra terms an insurer can add to a policy. Insurers tell you when you buy a policy if they’ve done this. They’ll let you know at renewal if they’ve added any too.

Car ownership You’re the legal owner if you’re registered with the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) as having bought the car or received it as a gift. The owner of the car and the registered keeper can be different people. For example, a car might be owned by the company you work for, but as an employee you might be the registered keeper. Check whether you’re the car’s registered keeper by looking at who’s name is on the vehicle’s log book (V5C).

Registered keeper The registered keeper is the person whose name appears in the vehicle’s log book (V5C). The owner of the car and the registered keeper can be different people. For example, a car might be owned by the company you work for, but as an employee you might be the registered keeper. Check whether you’re the vehicles’s registered keeper by looking at who’s name is on the vehicle’s log book (V5C).

Using the car Social only – covers normal day-to-day driving (such as visiting friends and family, shopping, etc) but not commuting. Social including commuting – covers social use plus commuting to a single, permanent place of work. Business use – includes social use and also covers the designated drivers in connection with their jobs (eg driving to different sites or offices and prearranged meetings away from the normal place of work). Commercial travelling – Covers social use and also using the vehicle for commercial travel, for example delivering goods or door-to-door sales. As there are different definitions of commercial travelling, you should check with the insurance company before you buy.

Total annual mileage We need to know the total annual mileage of the car, including the mileage of ALL drivers who use it. It’s important to get this right as underestimating your mileage may affect your cover or result in you being charged more. If you’re not sure, it may help to estimate your mileage on the following occasions and apply this across the year: mileage on a typical weekday mileage on a typical weekend mileage on holidays mileage on regular or longer journeys

Driving during peak times Insurers want to know if you’ll be regularly driving during the busiest times of the day. Insurers don’t need to know if you only drive in peak times occasionally.

Daytime parking By telling insurers where you park the car during the day (for the majority of the time) they can better assess your risk of making a claim and provide you with a more accurate quote.

Overnight parking By telling insurers where you park the car overnight (for the majority of the time) they can better assess your risk of making a claim and provide you with a more accurate quote. Important: It’s essential that you’re honest and choose the option that’s true most of the time. You might not be covered if you don’t park where you say you do. Some insurers might apply extra conditions around overnight location depending on things like vehicle value, so check the policy documents before buying.

Driving other vehicles Insurers can provide you with a more accurate quote if they can establish your driving history and habits, in this case how many vehicles you drive. If you do drive another vehicle some insurers will provide you with a discount based on this driving experience, but note that you’ll have to be able to prove this.
