Can I borrow a car while my rental car is unavailable?
What you need to know
The rental agreement does not normally insure you on a friend’s or relative’s private car.
Temporary insurance may be an option if you meet the acceptance criteria.
Make sure you know when cover starts and ends if you are switching between vehicles during your visit.
Need short-term car insurance?
If you are eligible and need temporary cover, you can compare available short-term insurance quotes and check the territorial limits of the policy offered before you buy.
