Do I need a green card for European travel?
While not compulsory in the EEA, we include an annual green card with all policies to ensure border compliance and provide travel assurance across 39 countries.
Does coverage reduce abroad?
No. Comprehensive policies maintain full coverage levels overseas without reverting to third-party only terms, ensuring consistent protection throughout Europe.

We cover most UK-registered cars, motorhomes, pickups, and vans including BMW, Ford, Land Rover (2001-2015), Mercedes, and Toyota models with specific usage limitations applying.
Is breakdown cover included?
Breakdown assistance is available as an optional add-on at £240/year, providing 24/7 roadside support across Europe with no vehicle age restrictions.
What documentation is required?
Policies require valid UK registration, current MOT (for vehicles over 3 years), and maintained road tax status. SORN declarations invalidate coverage eligibility.
