Seems okay for one off quick needed extra cover, but was discussed ages ago as someone asked about it for car taxation purposes.

The site clearly states in its FAQ's that taxation with their certificates is not possible

Just thought I would kill that one again.

Good to repost now and again though

No need to David, as insurance can only be arranged for less than 1 month per year.

Dayinsure.com is a short period insurance facilitity that will provide cover for a maximum of 28 days, for any one vehicle, in any 12 month period. If you require annual cover, dayinsure.com recommends that you contact Norwich Union Direct on 0800 092 9561, or via their website at www.norwichunion.com
It is underwritten by Norwich Union

They dont exactly ask many details though ! compared to getting a normal policy.

Came back at £21 for a days insurance on my old saff which I reckon is just to cheap.

Will it cover me if I buy another cheap saff and take it to Nurumburg for a few days ? if so were laughing

theres lots of small print to read.
took this of a forum that it was on sure they got it of the site

hadnt even thought of the tax tbh just thought could be handy if buying a car down south or something and getting you up the road.saves getting another cover note sent

Is driving round the 'ring classed as Social and Domestic ??

Im sure many people would be shocked to find their insurance is null and void should it go tits up, or you hit someone else out there etc.

Depends on how slow your driving

I bet that over 50% of those that travel over dont have a clue about the insurance bit, or even how much it costs to replace the armco

the old hic classic policy i was on for the s2 used to cover for track cover it said.dunno as to what t would cover tbh and probably wouldnt cover to the ring? if i was going id check on insurance lol.
might email them and see if this one day cover thing would cover the ring.doubt it but who knows lol.
if you were to go dave would you just head over from rosyth.think its only about 220 miles once of the ferry not sure what it is from the other side of the channel tunnel trying to persuade some folk to go.would be good to make a scottish trip
and your chief scottish organiser dave.will we leave it in your hands

probably about another £100-£150 max for the trailer depends when it was etc but thats most it would be i think.
would have to look at prices beter but im sure t would be easier and cheaper than going down south first.and lots more drinking time for the alcoholics
