Yes, you can. An example of this is if you have a car that you use only occasionally and you store it off-road, you can use this short term motor insurance for each journey. Just remember: your car won’t be insured in between policies, and you’ll need to keep it off the road and declare it as SORN (‘Statutory Off Road Notification’).

There are a few times where short term car insurance isn’t the right solution. For example:

• When you hire or rent a vehicle, – you’ll need specialist insurance which you can find out from the hire car company you use
• This insurance can’t be used for taxis or vehicles used to transport goods – basically for work.

There are a few factors that will affect the cost of this kind of insurance.
Your age, the vehicle you want to cover and the length of the policy.

Other factors might come into play too – for example if you have points on your license.

Yes you can and for a long time this was your only option. But doing this can be expensive. Short term motor insurance can be an affordable alternative solution for this.
