What to do about insurance to get my car to the garage?

Filed under: insurance

The question

My car failed its NCT and has been off the road. While waiting for the part to repair it (from abroad - current delays of several months) my insurance has expired. I am finding difficulty in getting cover to drive to garage to get it repaired.

Any suggestions?

Hi Janet,

The easiest thing to do is get the garage to come and collect the car themselves. They'll have insurance and/or a way to tow it or put it on a trailer/truck. They'll also likely get it through its NCT for you, for a fee, making life simpler. With the NCT in place you'll be able to insure the car once more.
