You can choose to go for a higher level of courtesy car cover than comes as standard. With Replacement Vehicle Hire for £24.99 per year, we'll help get you back on the road quickly.
- You'll get the use of a courtesy hire car for up to 21 days, even if your car is declared a total loss (also known as a 'write off') by your motor insurer. The cover also applies if your car is not roadworthy and is off the road being repaired as a result of a road traffic collision, fire, malicious damage, theft, or attempted theft.
- The courtesy car will be typically as large as a 1.8L family saloon.
- The courtesy car will be delivered and collected, and comes covered by comprehensive temporary motor insurance - at no extra cost. You'll have to pay an excess if you damage the courtesy car, though.
- You'll be covered in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
- If for some reason beyond our control no hire car is available, you’ll still benefit from your cover. We’ll pay to cover your cost of transportation, up to £30 a day for 21 days.
All benefits subject to terms and conditions.
Make sure that you check the cover offered against what you already get in a By Miles policy as standard so you can check that the policy is good value for you.
If you purchased a Courtesy Car Plus policy in 2024, your cover remains in force. You will be offered the option of adding Replacement Vehicle Hire in its place when your policy is due for renewal.
