Lauren_Davinaz Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Feeling absolutely p***** off with insurance. I only want to insure my 350z for one day in order to drive it to the bodyshop I work at.... in order to clean it up, and yet no one will insure me for one day??? My plan is/was to insure it for one day so I could take it to the bodyshop and clean it up, then store it in a garage and class it as a sorn so i could work on it and modify it since it is taxed. Has anyone else had this problem?? And if so how on earth can it be solved? I am aware that my age which is 24 might be a problem but even so! Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zelda Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Cuvva.com? I've never actually used them but afaik they offer short term insurance for single days, even by the hour. Other than that best deal I've been able to get for myself in the past has been 30 day insurance. For a single day the prices were silly.

Lauren_Davinaz Posted September 10, 2021 Author Share Posted September 10, 2021 I tried them but they won't do it either, it is so f****** stupid and I agree they want stupid money. Going to try ring insurance companies tomorrow and hope someone can actually offer something otherwise I will have to wait till December when I turn 25...

Lauren_Davinaz Posted September 10, 2021 Author Share Posted September 10, 2021 I have no problem with the cost of insuring it is just the fact I can not get it for one day which is crap. The cap fits lovely thank you! 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zelda Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 What about having the car transported to the garage? Quotes from shiply.com can be found surprisingly cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I’ve used cuvva a few times, they’re reasonably priced short term. There’s other websites who offer temporary insurance but they’re usually higher Recently I just use my own insurer to add a temp car on, much easier and cheaper than cuvva, mods aren’t an issue like they were on cuvva. I just log onto the portal and add the details. Very easy with admiral Might be worth checking with your own insurer first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabbitstew Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 In the past when ive needed temp insurance on a car - whilst i was selling it - i managed to get a short term insurance for a few days ffrom adrian flux. However, it cost a stupid amount as I couldnt use my main 28 years NCB on it. Id get someone to trailer it to the shop as I think that would be the easiest way.

Thanks You could get a quote for a full year and then cancel for refund the next day? Might have to pay a cancellation fee but could be a cheaper way to get it for a day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
